In the sequel to Clockwork Boys, Slate, Brenner, Caliban and Learned
Edmund have arrived in Anuket City, the source of the mysterious
Clockwork Boys. They even managed to build some trust in each other's
skills. That trust is built on quicksand as the risks continue to
escalate. But the secrets they're keeping could well destroy them,
before the city even gets the chance...
Old foes and consequences of past decisions lurk in the shadows. Every
team member's skills are required to succeed--even more so if they hope
to survive.
The Wonder Engine never lets us forget our funny, broken group even as
the action propels our heroes to new highs and lows. It shows that
making the most of the rest of your life can be rewarding--no matter how
many mechanical abominations you need to destroy to get there.
