Description
A thrilling new entry into the skyrocketing LitRPG and GameLit genres, Steam Whistle Alley combines gaming mechanics with steampunk aesthetics through the magic of advanced augmented reality. The game turns Seattle into a steampunk wonderland, with the beautifully-described imagery becoming the setting for the adventure of a lifetime.
Everyone on the street that day saw a lunatic wearing strange brass goggles, swinging an invisible sword on the sidewalks of downtown Seattle. But Jacob recognizes what the man is really doing--playing a game in augmented reality. When the game's creator offers him his own goggles, Jacob enters a city he thinks he knows. But towering monuments of Victorian architecture have replaced the skyscrapers. Airships float between the buildings. Fearsome enemies, from steam-powered death rabbits to clockwork werewolves lurk in every shadow.
But with the game comes a quest, and to the victors go the deed to Steam Whistle Alley, the social and financial heart of the game. Jacob, his mouthy, biosynthetic monkey Banjo, and the rest of the team must face off against foes who want the alley for themselves. Some of his adversaries, however, aren't pplaying games. They don't want the alley. They want the company, and the death they bring is not the kind Jacob can respawn from.
Debut author Joshua Mason knocks it out of the park in this GameLit adventure, perfect for fans of Ready Player One, steampunk, or video games in general. Packed with pop culture and nostalgia, Steam Whistle Alley transcends genres and delivers a tale to remember.
