Acerca de esta escucha
Her father's been pronounced dead. Destructive earthquakes ravage the countryside. An invading army looms over the horizon. And Zaira's day is just getting started....
Abandoned at an early age, Zaira von Monocle found life as the daughter of a great adventurer to be filled with hard work and difficulty. She quickly learned to rely on only herself. But when a messenger brought news that her father was dead and that she was the heir to his airship, her world turned upside down.
Zaira soon finds herself trapped in the midst of a war between her home country of Rislandia and the cruel Wyranth Empire, whose soldiers are acting peculiarly - almost inhuman. With the enemy army advancing, her newfound ship’s crew may be the only ones who can save the kingdom.
For Steam and Country is the first book in the Adventures of Baron Von Monocle series by top-10 Amazon best-selling space-opera author, Jon Del Arroz.

After years of fighting for justice with his deadly nanotech, Templar Drin abandons his post, crash landing on a desert world controlled by a tyrannical alien empire. Its inhabitants are forced into slavery, broken where a once-proud race cultivated its lands. For the first time in Drin's life, he has no backup, no support, none of his brothers. He stands alone against evil.

Since time immemorial the Spires have sheltered humanity, towering for miles over the mist-shrouded surface of the world. Within their halls aristocratic houses have ruled for generations, developing scientific marvels, fostering trade alliances, and building fleets of airships to keep the peace. Captain Grimm commands the merchant ship Predator. Fiercely loyal to Spire Albion, he has taken their side in the cold war with Spire Aurora, disrupting the enemy's shipping lines by attacking their cargo vessels.

Historia
Geary believed in the Alliance. Even when he uncovered overwhelming evidence that the highest echelons of the government and fleet command were involved in secret programs and prison camps, he believed it was worth saving. He believed his duty was to see that justice was served even though some factions feared that revealing the truth would cause the Alliance to crumble. But after narrowly surviving two assassination attempts when he brings evidence of the misdeeds to the capital star system, Geary realizes that some want to get rid of him.

On an appointed day of every year, all sixteen-year-olds must select the faction to which they will devote the rest of their lives.

So smuggling in the occasional harmless bit of contraband barely counts, right? Not when you've got debts to pay and your job as a porter barely covers the rent. Everything changes when Jazz sees the chance to commit the perfect crime, with a reward too lucrative to turn down.

In order to survive, Jordan ekes out a living dabbling in interstellar smuggling for outlaw concerns that represent the last vestiges of free trade in the galaxy. So when Jordan and his partner, Ixil - an alien with two ferret-like "outhunters" linked to his neural system - are hired by a mysterious gentleman to fly a ship and its special cargo to Earth, they jump at the job.

Over a millennium in the past, humans fleeing Earth in slower-than-light vessels discovered the Waywork, an abandoned alien superhighway system that allows instantaneous travel from star to star. The problem: there are a finite number of Waypoint nodes - and the burgeoning population of humans is hemmed in as a result. Furthermore, humanity is divided into contending Starstates. One of the strongest is based on an oligarchy ruling families, but still mostly democratic. The other is a totalitarian nightmare. War seems inevitable.

steampunk escape.
For Steam and Country is everything the title promises. It's and an airship adventure with a dangerous mission and the outcome of a war in the balance. The rallying cry for the crew is the titular "For Steam and Country."
I loved that this wasn't straight military fiction. The story had fantasy elements and a great coming of age plot.
the narrator did really well, making each character their own voice and infusing personality into the reading.

Enjoyed and already planning to listen to next book
I wasn’t too much into steampunk before listening to this. I was familiar with the genre here and there, but wasn’t really my thing.
I listened to this book almost entirely from beginning to end with almost no need to rewind or repeat. It was very easy to listen to and follow along. The main character is a strong and independent female but she’s got her flaws and weaknesses, and needs to rely on others. So no Mary Sue here.
The narrator did a great job portraying Zaira, since the book is written from a first person point of view.
Since the book is written in first person view of the protagonist, that also leaves a lot of the world and imagery to the reader’s imagination. So having at least a basic understanding of steampunk and it’s typical characteristics would help.
I imagine this story could serve as the source for a comic or even film adaptation.
Looking forward to the next book already!

My first experience with the steampunk genre, and definitely won't be my last. Great story and fantastic narration.

Clean, fast, fun
Wonderfully clean and age appropriate. My only critique is that the narrator could use a bit better pacing and inflection. She gets a bit monotone at times.
this is definitely a book I'll be letting my daughters listen to! Smart, logical characters.

Amusing if you're a 12 year old girl
No real attempt at world-building. Very unrealistic plot and actions of the main character. (In just a few days, goes from being a farm girl to crack-shot commando) Overall impression: silly. Narration is not good, either.

Steampunk action
This is a fun read. I had not read any steampunk before this and I wasn’t sure just what to expect.
What I got was a excellent story that left me wanting more.
I wholeheartedly recommend it.
