An Ill Wind (Forbidden Series Book 3)

A steampunk/cyberpunk book set in a post-apocalyptic future by award winning author, Regina Puckett.

It has been eight hundred and seventy years since The Great War and the quality of life of the war-torn-countryside is slowly improving, thanks to the pioneering spirit of Harmony’s grandmother and grandfather.

Harmony and Boy have been flying her grandmother’s airship since her death. They use it to deliver food supplies and found objects from The Forbidden Lands to the few, last remaining humans on earth. It’s on one of these trips up the east coast an unexpected storm pulls the airship out into the open ocean. Even though Harmony struggles to keep Airus airborne, the strong winds are too much and it crashes into the ocean.

When Harmony regains consciousness, she discovers Airus has been pulled in by the tide onto a tiny island – that’s the only good news. There’s no fresh water on the island, her two robots are damaged, Airus’ balloon is deflated, and the friction engine is broken. All of that might be enough to defeat someone else, but Harmony has never been known to give up. She’s lucky enough to be blessed with her grandmother’s grit, determination and bullheadedness.
