The Engineer's Apprentice

In a steampunk world where machinery collides with ancient magic, Annie Sakdavong is determined to make her mark—even if society stands in her way.

A gifted steam engineer, Annie dreams of breaking boundaries, but finding a mentor willing to teach her is nearly impossible. That is, until she meets Issa Obasi, an Igbo engineer with visionary ideas to merge rune magic with steampunk technology. Together, they begin a partnership destined to reshape the world.

Their alliance crumbles when a mysterious Native American, capable of walking through walls, infiltrates Issa's lab and steals his groundbreaking research. With the authorities turning a blind eye, Annie and Issa are thrust into a perilous journey to the Western Native Lands—a realm where danger lurks in every shadow.

As the threat intensifies and the death toll mounts, they are pulled deeper into a web of conspiracy that could tear the West apart. Pursued by relentless enemies and haunted by their own doubts, Annie and Issa must confront their deepest fears and a society eager to see them fail. Can they defy the forces against them and shape a new future, or will their ambitions be crushed by a world unwilling to change?

An action-packed steampunk adventure filled with mystery, magic, and courage, The Engineer's Apprentice is perfect for fans of A Master of Djinn by P. Djèlí Clark and In Plain Sight (Arcane Casebook Series) by Dan Willis.

Step into a reimagined West, where the power of steam collides with ancient runes, and two outsiders defy the odds to change their world.
