Kage Baker’s steampunk novella has just been published amidst a bevy of glowing reviews, including those from Publishers Weekly (”The beautifully drawn Victorian era is neatly spiced up with futuristic technology such as mechanical eye implants. Baker’s fans will delight in this slight, bawdy and funny confection.”); Booklist (“A good time should be had by enough readers to prompt further Nell Gwynne’s capers from Baker.”); and i09.com (”It’s a witty steampunk thriller as if written by Ian Fleming’s crazy libertine aunt. I am hopeful we will see more of Lady Beatrice and her sisters in espionage.”)

Pick up a copy and enjoy. Also, slated for publication later this year, illustrated by J. K. Potter, is her related, full length novel, Not Less Than Gods.
