Gear up
for GEARS OF BRASS!
A
world like ours, but filled with gears of brass, where the beating heart is
fueled by steam and the simplest creation is a complex clockwork
device.
Within
this tome, you’ll find steampunk fairy tale re-tellings, as well as original
stories that will send your gears turning.
Welcome
