| Moderator Support Team   | Steampunk Chronicles by Kady Cross #1: Good or Bad. Jekyll VS Hyde.Introduces the Girl in the Steel Corset. A must read! Steampunk Chronicles by Kady Cross  In 1897 England, sixteen-year-old Finley Jayne has no one except the thing inside her. When a young lord tries to take advantage of Finley, she fights back. And wins. But no normal Victorian girl has a darker side that makes her capable of knocking out a full-grown man with one punch. Only Griffin King sees the magical darkness inside her that says she's special, says she's one of them. The orphaned duke takes her in from the gaslit streets against the wishes of his band of misfits. Emily, who has her own special abilities and an unrequited love for Sam, who is part robot; and Jasper, an American cowboy with a shadowy secret. Griffin's investigating a criminal called The Machinist, the mastermind behind several recent crimes by automatons. Finley thinks she can help and finally be a part of something, finally fit in. But The Machinist wants to tear Griff's little company of strays apart, and it isn't long before trust is tested on all sides. At least Finley knows whose side she's on, even if it seems no one believes her Fans 1. Stay to the Lights | |||

| Moderator Support Team | You should  I loved the first book. I thought the plot was interesting.I also recently read the prequel  Finley Jayne knows she's not 'normal'. Normal girls don't lose time, or have something inside them that makes them capable of remarkably violent things. Her behavior has already cost her one job, so when she's offered the lofty position of companion to Phoebe, a debutante recently engaged to Lord Vincent, she accepts, despite having no experience. Lord Vincent is a man of science with his automatons and inventions, but Finley is suspicious of his motives where Phoebe is concerned. She will do anything to protect her new friend, but what she discovers is even more monstrous than anything she could have imagined… | |||

| Master Fan  | So far I have only read the Strange Case of Finley Jayne and although I am familiar with steampunk in other media I've never read anything steampunk before but I was pretty sure I would enjoy it. And I did. Glad to see there's a book 2 in the works. Or is it already out? -Pammie __________________
