Description
xA Steampunk Fantasy Novel--Four frightened, steam-driven, robotic dolls-a dancer, a clown, a Spartan warrior, and a Tibetan monk-go on a quest to rescue their creator, genius inventor, Thaddeus Pennybrook, who's being held hostage by criminals. Traveling through a strange and threatening world, the dolls' hardships teach them not only how to survive, but what it means to be a humanoid. By fulfilling their impossible mission, they inadvertently renew their creator's lease on life. For you film buffs, this is BLADE RUNNER meets PINNOCHIO!
Steampunk for the Peculiarly Intelligent Reader--Readers looking for the best Young Adult Fantasy and particularly Steampunk fiction books will want to take note: D. A. Metrov not only writes with passion and sensual detail, but with a wink to current day issues. His heroic characters are defenders of Mother Nature. On a deeper level, they seem to have an innate alliance with a mysterious, Spiritual Force-the same Force that created the Universe. Metrov's unique blend of epic fantasy, steampunk, fantastic, steam-powered inventions, and metaphysics draws the reader ever deeper into a remarkable new realm of fantasy literature. His background as a film director, screenwriter, and fine arts painter adds fresh cinematic scope to his unique brand of young adult storytelling.
If you love J.R.R. Tolkein, LORD OF THE RINGS, dragon stories, steampunk, compelling characters, strong female counterparts, and wicked, mechanical inventions, you will very likely add THE TERRIBLE QUEST OF THADDEUS PENNYBROOK'S KNEE-HIGH STEAMBOTS to your best young adult fiction list.
