Synopsis
Join Vanessa. Inspector. Steampunker. Robot Wrangler.
In the wilds of America, Vanessa Hargreaves finds herself up to her corset in trouble.
Her investigation stymied by monstrous horrors, the Inspector continues to carry the deadly Cook plague away from villains unknown. Traveling with her automata Alphonse, she doesn't know can't tell if she's running from the steaming, lurching giants at her heels or her guilt at putting her loved ones in danger. From deadly circus side shows to a ghostly train that seems to have a life of its own, the very land of the new world seems to be attempting to thwart her at every turn.
The American heartland is rife with strange, wondrous, dangerous oddities of its own, challenging her convictions and her very service to her Queen. Loyalties and regrets will become the least of her worries as titanic forces are mustering, from ghost trains to air pirates, to bring her great American adventure to an untimely end.
“Law fills the pages with exciting gear action and fashion.” - Publisher's Weekly ★★★★★
AUTHOR INTERVIEW
Q: Tell us about you and your work
A: Hi! This is usually a hard question for me. Am I a child of two worlds? Yes. Do I call both New York and Hong Kong home? Yes, and that has pushed me into writing anachronistic work like steampunk. Am I a food writer, a trained chef, and a motorbike enthusiast? All yes.
But they say the acorn is pulled into being by the oak tree it is going to be, and I was always going to be a novelist first and foremost. I grew up reading Douglas Adams and Madeline L'engle and Roald Dahl, and they were my friends when I moved around too much to have any. My wife and I basically live in a library.
Q: What books do you write?
A: I'm working on a ray gun series at the moment where I crash noir, Gothic, and western against a scifi backdrop. I adore fantasy. Ultimately, I want to push out of genre completely and go into lit fiction, but that judgement is up to the reader to make. Steampunk will always have a sweet spot with me.
THE LANDS BEYOND
- FUTURE THAT NEVER WAS (book 1)
- SPECTRE OF WAR (book 2)
- OF STATIONS INFERNAL (book 3)
Q: Why should readers pick up your books?
A: My wife and few fans say this better than I do. They tell me I don't write weak female characters, and that I offer a voice to the voiceless. They say the writing is like a fine merlot and that the balance of action to hilarity is refreshing. Personally, I think the reason to pick up my books is the same reason you would give for following a stranger into a bar. You might not like it, but at least you will never regret it.

About the Author
Kin S. Law is a Chinese-American author who looks to include diversity, representation, and truth in his steampunk. Instead of a historical fiction where one event has changed things, his worlds represent what could have been, what should be, and what always was. He draws from a life lived in multiple cultures, but always with a love for everything weird and geeky. He lives in NYC.

Paperback. Condition: New. In the untamed heart of steampunk America, the horrors don't end at the frontier.Inspector Vanessa Hargreaves has crossed the ocean-and several lines of sanity-in pursuit of a deadly secret. Still carrying the mysterious and catastrophic Cook Plague, she finds herself pursued by monstrous clockwork titans, haunted locomotives, and enemies cloaked in velvet and shadow.Accompanied by her loyal automaton Alphonse, Vanessa must navigate a strange new land filled with cursed carnivals, sentient trains, and airship marauders, all while questioning whether she's fleeing her enemies-or her own guilt. The further she travels into the wilds of the American frontier, the more twisted and deadly her path becomes.As strange machines, supernatural threats, and forces beyond the veil begin to gather, Vanessa must decide where her loyalty lies: with her Queen, her conscience. or the growing belief that this New World was never meant to be tamed.A darkly imaginative steampunk western full of plague-born peril, haunted wonders, and gaslamp suspense, in this final chapter of Lands Beyond.
