FANTASTIC STEAMPUNK ALT. HISTORY! - THIS is an enthralling and intriguing new spin into a world that I found incredible! It was like seeing the Wild, Wild, West Meeting Enola Holmes and I couldn't put it down! This is a really great book and I can't wait to see what is coming next. I highly recommend it to anyone who enjoyed shows like Shadow and Bone, The Nevers, or the Irregulars!  –Scribbled Dreams and Enchanting Things

Okay hear me out. This is NOT my normal kinda book. But with that being said, I really did enjoy this. It really made me think about how times could have been and what could have happened. Some things in here just made me heated. But really worth the read. 4⭐

I really enjoyed Maxwell's writing style. The alternate history/steampunk treatment of a post-civil war America in which the South prevailed was very interesting though I found the location of Oklahoma to be a bit puzzling. Apparently in this timeline the US government didn't boot out the Native Americans from the Eastern States or at least they weren't central to this story. Be warned that the book ends with a cliffhanger but the version I read included a preview of the next book that explained what happened next. The main characters are quite appealing or quite villainous depending on their view of slavery and women's rights. I have no doubt that this is going to be a very interesting series as Evangeline and Simon organize their Civil Rebellion to fight the forces of slavery.
