FROM THE BACK COVER

Thomas Riley and Cynthia Basset's adventures in their steampunk world have turned down a dark path. After an assassination attempt, the West Canvian heroes receive a message from a mysterious woman about the whereabouts of Cynthia's missing suitor and famous sky pirate, Sam Burges.

Cynthia insists on pursuing the lead despite great risk, so the two of them take off with a rogue colonial sky pirate and his eclectic crew to find the man that she loves. On their journey, Thomas and Cynthia learn that Sam has joined with their enemies, the Lemurians, under the supervision of the mad man, Doctor Wolfgang Gerhard.

To make matters worse, Sam is in a commanding position on board the secret airship, The Maelstrom, that has the ability to control the weather in a most nefarious way.

Thomas and Cynthia's loyalty to their country and to each other are laid on the line in this steampunk tale of love, loss and adventure. ((courtesy of Amazon.com))

About the author:
Nick Valentino’s evolution of writing started with music.

Residing in Nashville Tennessee, his background is a curious mix of music, history and the love of all things artistic. Graduating from Belmont University with a BA in History, he played in touring bands for most of his adult life writing volumes of lyrics along the way. It was then that he discovered a love for storytelling.

Inspired by his intense intrigue with history, his travels around the world and the throngs of steampunk enthusiasts around the nation, Valentino wrote the Alternative History/Science Fiction novel, Thomas Riley. The sequel, Thomas Riley and The Maelstrom, was released in June 2013. Both area available from Zova Books!
