GEARS OF BRASS!

Gear up for GEARS OF BRASS!

A world like ours, but filled with gears of brass, where the beating heart is fueled by steam and the simplest creation is a complex clockwork device.

Within this tome, you’ll find steampunk fairy tale re-tellings, as well as original stories that will send your gears turning.

Welcome to the steampunk realm, with eleven authors guiding your path.

GEARS OF BRASS is a steampunk anthology published through Curiosity Quills. It will be available for purchase on November 10, 2014.

Hi Yolanda, Best wishes to all the authors (too numerous to name after a bottle of wine) and Beers of Grass. Or Bears and Bass. Or is it .... I'd better stop before I get myself into trouble. But best wishes just the same for a smashing success!

And I got my Steampunk fill with watching Box Trolls with the fam this past week. Fun show. Worth the price of admission.
