(PRLeap.com) "Steampunk Edo," a new book by C.L. Armerding, has been released by RoseDog Books.Author C.L. Armerding invites readers into a breathtaking reimagining of feudal Japan with the release of their latest novel. Set in an alternate Edo period where samurai steel meets steam-based technology centuries ahead of its time, the story weaves a high-stakes narrative of survival, solidarity, and the bridge between two worlds.
In this timeline, Edo is a city of impossible wonders and terrifying shadows. While flying machines dominate the skies and firearms reshape the battlefield, the Yokai, spirits of nature and magical creatures, remain an everyday reality. However, both man and myth live under the iron-fisted rule of the warlord Tokugawa.
The story follows Yuzu, a teenage girl from a remote island who views Edo's marvels only through distant legends. Her life is upended when a chance encounter makes her the target of Tao, a vengeful shape-shifting fox. Forced to flee to the heart of the empire, Yuzu finds herself caught in the crossfire of a brewing revolution. As Tokugawa's oppression pushes the Yokai to their breaking point, Yuzu must unite disparate species to prevent a cataclysmic war between cold machinery and ancient magic.
