The Alchemy of Stone by Ekaterina Sedia
4.0
This is by far one of the better Steam Punk books.
It focuses on Alchemy and Machinery all in the Victorian style and the steam, while minimal, the time period rings true.
The Punk is also representative by the revolution contained within the pages and the struggle for balance in the city.
The main character is an automaton, and she befriends the towns gargoyles to help her in her plight.
Overall, a good enough story, a bittersweet ending, and plenty to make the imagination run rampant.
