This book won't be released for another week here in the States, and later in other parts of the world, so if you haven't read Roil yet (reviewed here), don't worry. You still have time before the conclusion of The Nightbound Land duology hits the shelves.
This is a science fiction novel that reads like fantasy, but a careful reading of either book shows it's clearly science fiction (or at least science fantasy), which is why I'm reviewing it here rather than at Adventures Fantastic. It's different than most anything I've seen lately, further proof of my conclusion that Angry Robot is one of the publishers you should be reading.
Night's Engines is old fashioned adventure, the kind we don't see enough of these days. One of the advantages of being in the Robot Army is getting to read some of the most exciting new science fiction and fantasy before anyone else does. And while not every title I've previewed has worked for me, most of them have. This series certainly does.
