Lovely artwork. Interesting background to the quartet of books. I don't think you would have to have read the books to enjoy this but it helped. Not really useful to read in a sitting or even sequentially. Nice for dipping in and out of. Keep it on that coffee table.

Whist I’ve only read the first mortal engines, I had to buy this book. The art styles are beautiful and the works building is extraordinary. A great read if you’re like and are looking for work with design.

OF COURSE I bought this day one.
OF COURSE it is excellent.

The original traction codex this was born from was small and nearly impossible to find. This is a gorgeous, full color, lovely, wonderful book full of GREAT PUNS and FUN IDEAS and COOL CONCEPTS. And it is very good.

If you like mortal engines you gotta get this book. Or even if you just like the idea of mortal engines and want to read great worldbuilding based on the idea and look at art.

When I first got this book, I was surprised- it is full of art! Pretty much every page has drawings, in various styles, all top notch, colorful, and imaginative. Heck yes.
