The Wonder Engine

In The Wonder Engine by T. Kingfisher, a sharp-edged fantasy adventure returns to the dangerous charm of the Clocktaur War world, with a crew you’ll happily follow into trouble. It’s fast, funny in a dry way, and threaded with real emotional stakes—especially when old choices come back with teeth.

Slate and her mismatched companions reach Anuket City, a place of engineered marvels and unsettling secrets where the Clockwork Boys are made. The closer they get to the truth, the more Slate’s own history in the city complicates the mission, while her prickly, unresolved pull towards the honour-bound Caliban adds friction at the worst possible time. With enemies resurfacing and the odds tightening, every step forward raises the cost.

Perfect for readers who enjoy sword-and-sorcery with romance, found family banter, and morally complicated heroes.
