This was a really intriguing concept but ultimately an unsatisfying book. Some of the action feels almost rote and none of the characters were super likable or compelling.

Wait.. will there be a second book? I need to know who the creator is.

I picked the audiobook up on a whim to listen to on my commute, and I'm glad I did. It was a unique story that appealed to my inner steampunk sensibilities, and it's very different from most other things I've been reading. I appreciated how it brought together the past and the present through June and Peter's stories, and how you could see everything progressing over centuries between the two perspectives. I didn't love the audiobook narrators, but that's not the fault of the book and they weren't so bad I couldn't finish it. Overall a unique sci-fi story that's worth a go.

I was very intrigued when I read the synopsis of The Clockwork Dynasty. Everything I loved about sci-fi fantasies was contained in this book. I was bored to be honest. I enjoyed the characters and all but I didn't feel like I needed to be in this world. I could not attach myself to any one character or feel like I want to live in this world. I was to reiterate, this was not a bad book by any means, it just was not what I was hoping for.
