The Wonder Engine

Clocktaur War, Book 2

By: T. Kingfisher

Narrated by: Khristine Hvam

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.

Sad it's over

If the author wrote a hundred books with these characters, I would listen to every one of them. I am so sad it's over. I haven't listened to something I've enjoyed this much in a long time. Please if you come across these gems, do yourself a favor and buy them. If you're anything like me, you won't be disappointed.

the writing is amazing

the writing is amazing, and the narrator does an amazing job, I highly recommend t Kingfisher

Just as good as first book. Fun story and the reader is a great fit.

I really enjoyed this book as much as the first one in the series. The reader has a perfect voice for this book.

Great mix of adventure with humour

I enjoy Kingfisher's world building, but it is the interplay between her characters that keep me engaged
