The moment Zenobia jumps from her attacked airship and crosses path with the Kraken King, I was hooked.

I jumped at the chance to finally pick back-up this series, excited to read The Kraken King as a complete whole.

From the moment her airship is attacked by marauders, and she is rescued by Ariq, AKA the Kraken King, the adventure and danger begins, along with the very unexpected attraction to this former smuggler and thief. What she could never have expected was the adventure she was about to embark on was greater than any fiction she dared dream of. When an opportunity arises to join her childhood friend on her way to Australia, she seizes the chance to research her next Lady Lynx novel and hopes for a little adventure for herself along the way. Sister to the infamous Archimedes, she writes stories of daring action and adventure, but has little experience herself. The story opens up with Zenobia Fox trying to escape being kidnapped. Originally created as an eight-part serial, the story is completely action-packed, each scene fills the pages with no wasted space, no dull moments and the plot moves fast with no shortage of Steampunk elements. The results is the sensational novel here for the first time in its complete entirety, a Steampunk Romance lover's dream come true.
