Waiting on Wednesday: The Inventor's Secret


Waiting on Wednesday is a meme hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine, which spotlights upcoming releases we are eagerly anticipating.
(Coming April 2014) 
New from Andrea Cremer, the New York Times bestselling author of the Nightshade novels, comes an action-packed alternate-history steampunk adventure.
In this world, sixteen-year-old Charlotte and her fellow refugees have scraped out an existence on the edge of Britain’s industrial empire. Though they live by the skin of their teeth, they have their health (at least when they can find enough food and avoid the Imperial Labor Gatherers) and each other. When a new exile with no memory of his escape  or even his own name seeks shelter in their camp he brings new dangers with him and secrets about the terrible future that awaits all those who have struggled has to live free of the bonds of the empire’s Machineworks.

The Inventor’s Secret is the first book of a YA steampunk series set in an alternate nineteenth-century North America where the Revolutionary War never took place and the British Empire has expanded into a global juggernaut propelled by marvelous and horrible machinery.

Not only is this a new world and series from Andrea Cremer, but it's also steampunk and I couldn't be more excited to get my hands on it! I love her Nightshade series and she is incredible at world building. I have no doubt she'll do the same with this new series.

Plus... it comes out two days before my birthday. This is going to be a great year!

What are you waiting on?

  2. I was fortunate enough to pick up an ARC of this at NYC Comic Con. Your cover is very different than the one I have.
