Enjoyable YA Steampunk

This was my first experience with Patrick Dugan's work, and it was great. After losing an arm, Quinn, an apprentice blacksmith, looked for a new path for his life. The story was fun. The worldbuilding was complex. The characters were entertaining. I liked all the twists and turns of the story. William Walker's narration was awesome, and his performance added to the story's entertainment. I was given a free copy of the audiobook, and I have voluntarily posted this review.

Fun read!

Great story and characters. Compelling narration. Keep the series going so we can see what happens next!

William Walker's voice is captivating, bringing the characters and story to life in a way that few others can. The story itself is wonderful, full of intriguing twists and emotional depth. Highly recommended for anyone looking for an engaging and beautifully narrated experience.
