But first, a word from ... Today's Sponsor
For all of you that loved the vivid descriptions and world building of the first series - pick up this book immediately! We get to see more of Tellurak - and the new world, Korr, just jumps of the pages (well, ok, screen) to create some really stunning visuals of an almost steampunk underground civilization.
Mad Tinker's Daughter (Mad Tinker Chronicles)
I am a writer of epic fantasy. I enjoy strategy, world-building, and filling in the missing words that English forgot. My ultimate goal is to be both clever and right at the same time.
I took to writing because the gaming group I DMed for kept throwing monkey wrenches into my elaborately crafted stories. I decided to take over their part and write as a novelist. It allowed me to break free of the constraints of the gaming mechanics and create my own worlds. More importantly, it gave me the freedom to create the characters I wanted to inhabit those worlds, and not just the NPCs.
Firehurler started off from a dream, one that I could recall no detail from, just a strong sense of how real it had felt at the time. It got me thinking of what it would be like if the person in my dreams had just fallen asleep and started dreaming of my world, equally unable to recall it on waking. That was the origin of the Twinborn Trilogy concept: the stories of the people who could remember.

Here's the set-up:
The world told her No. She didn’t listen.
Madlin Errol is heiress to the greatest fortune in Tellurak. Her father, the Mad Tinker, has built an empire by crafting devices that no one else in the world could match. Madlin grew up spoiled, given everything she could wish for: the finest tools, all the raw metals she could ask for, and a workshop of her very own. Yet in her sleep, she lives another life, in another world.
Korr...a world where humans are subjugated, working menial jobs or even enslaved. The ruling kuduks treat them like talking animals. In that world, Madlin is known as Rynn, a girl who grew up without her parents, mired in the depths of an underground city, sleeping in a boiler room. But unlike so many of her fellow humans, she has seen a world where there are no limits. She, and a growing number of human rebels, have begun to fight back.

One Reviewer Notes:
I'm not sure if it's the steampunk-y vibe, the grittiness or that I just always loved rooting for the underdog, but I was really sad when I was done reading this book. Thankfully the next one should be out soon! It's a bit shorter than previous works but that doesn't detract from the story. There is less exposition and more story in this book so we get to the action almost straight away. NOTE: You do not have to have previously read the Twinborn Trilogy to enjoy this book. It stands on it's own just fine. However, it's sort of the same universe, but focusing on different places. So if you have read the Twinborn Trilogy it will add another layer of understanding to the reading of this book.
