really liked it

This is the second novel in a fun series that is a steampunk reimagining of the civil war. In this series, Priest draws a different map of America with Texas being it's own country and the North and South stop before West of Utah. The west is considered a vast wilderness. The North and South have been in an embittered civil war for generations.

In this book, Mercy, who is a nurse in a southern hospital, receives a message that her estranged father is dying up west in Seattle. She leaves her job, and begins the journey west to meet him. On this trip she encounters one crazy thing after the next. She discovers an enormous undercover secret weapon that the North is hoping to use to win the war. It's lots of fun, and the writing is pretty good too.

Imagine steampunk, zombies, war machines, civil war reimaginings, and so much more.
