Ichor Well (Free-Wrench Book 3)
Ichor Well is the third adventure in the Free-Wrench Series of Steampunk novels.
Ever since Nita Graus left her homeland and joined the crew of the Wind Breaker, the reputation of the airship and its crew has been growing. The destruction of the mighty dreadnought, the escape from the legendary Skykeep, and the inexplicable ability to remain hidden from the ever-watchful eye of the Fug Folk have combined to make her and her fellow crew the stuff of legend. Alas, legendary heroes cannot exist for long without attracting a worthy villain. Luscious P. Alabaster strives to be just that foe.
While he works his nefarious plans, the crew itself is not without turmoil. Captain Mack, already having survived far more years in the hostile skies than he had any right to expect, is making plans for his golden years. The crew is gradually learning all that Nita can teach them, leaving her with the looming decision of whether or not she still has a place among the crew.
Before the matter of the future can be settled, the crew has the problems at hand to solve. And in escaping the webs woven by the cunning and eccentric Alabaster, they may discover the darkest secrets the churning and toxic Fug has to hide.
A great addition to the series,
Wonderful excuse to read through the books from the beginning to catch up on the whole story.
Could have done with a bit of editorial polish though – a few too many incorrect words and typos.
Got book 1 for free and enjoyed it so much bought book 2 which did not …,
I hope the author does not get tempted to do book 4 because I believe the subject is exhausted.
One of the best reads ever,
