I went through a Steampunk phase where everything I read had to have Steampunk elements, not matter how contrived or implausible. Caught The Iron Wyrm Affair toward the end of that phase so maybe I was a little too done with the genre by then.
While this was an interesting premise, I pretty much couldn't stand the main character Emma Bannon. She's trying to be a badass (and mostly succeeds) but I wanted explanation for who she is and why she acted as she did other than "because she can." However, her Shield, Mikal, saved her for me. He saw something in her worthwhile, so I stuck with the story.
The concepts of sorceresses and mentath was fascinating to me. I might have to give the second book a try.
