Book 3 of Bellesfées!
A family bound by blood
though not born of blood.
Lost souls abound at Bellesfées,
some found, and others only just discovered. But when Jacqueline Duval goes missing, along with a beast of a locomotive built through the sweat and blood of innocents, the foundlings she has taken under her wing must rally to bring her home again. To rescue their future, the self-styled Order of Duval must conquer the specters of the past or risk all being lost to the aether.
"An immersive fantasy novel with the perfect blend of found family and magic. The Order of Duval crackles with energy, offering up the perfect blend of intrigue, action, and magic.” ~ A. C. Wise, author of The Ghost Sequences, Wendy, Darling and Hooked
"Lush steampunk, creepily dark and cozily heartwarming in turns: Deal has created a heart-racing read with high stakes and a found family you can't help but love."
~ Beth Cato, author of The Clockwork Dagger

Monstrous Is a Matter of Perspective…
Classic tales throughout time pit humanity against creatures of the night, beyond mortal understanding. But what—or who—makes a monster? Folklore has its tale to tell, but might there be a different view? We present fourteen tales inspired by the masters of the macabre, Bram Stoker and Mary Shelley, paying tribute to their vision of gothic horror.
In conjunction with the Tell-Tale Steampunk Festival, we bring you stories by * James Chambers * Michelle D. Sonnier * Keith R.A. DeCandido * Jessica Lucci * Aaron Rosenberg * Dana Fraedrich * Doc Coleman * Danielle Ackley-McPhail * Ef Deal * John L. French * Christine Norris * Rachel Brune * David Lee Summers * Hildy Silverman *
Lots of fun at the book launch celebration for The Order of Duval!
