In the sequel to Clockwork Boys, Slate, Brenner, Caliban and Learned Edmund have arrived in Anuket City, the source of the mysterious Clockwork Boys. They even managed to build some trust in each other's skills. That trust is built on quicksand as the risks continue to escalate. But the secrets they're keeping could well destroy them, before the city even gets the chance...
Old foes and consequences of past decisions lurk in the shadows. Every team member's skills are required to succeed - even more so if they hope to survive.
The Wonder Engine never lets us forget our funny, broken group even as the action propels our heroes to new highs and lows. It shows that making the most of the rest of your life can be rewarding - no matter how many mechanical abominations you need to destroy to get there.

Fascinating story, great world-building.

The story wrap up is also fairly good with 2 problems. Too much filler,too much internal dialog. And every stupid person ‘pinches the bridge of their damn noses’ in frustration, anger, fear, sadness, etc. The nose bridge pinching happens 2-3 DOZEN times. It’s both waaayyy too often and something I’ve never seen anyone do in real life. Including me!
Nearly as good as the first

“I accidentally entered the World of the White Rat out of order- I listened to Swordheart and the first three Paladin books before this one. It does make sense to start with these two Clocktaur Wars books, but I actually do not think they are as strong as the Paladin books. Perhaps it was the narration (I listened to all of these books on audio), which wasn’t great for this duo. Perhaps I did not connect with Slate the way I did with Halla or Grace or Clara, but I felt that these two books were just a bit thin and at the same time overly convoluted. Some nice world building and generally strong characters, but a few holes and “convenient” plot devices that I couldn’t quite get with. I might not have minded so much if I had started with these, but again, I think the Paladin books are stronger.”
The Wonder Engine started well and I enjoyed the first half quite a bit. Then I got a little lost about two thirds in and couldn’t quite stick with it. The emotion of the characters and the grit of their various relationships was excellent, but the ending needed to be fleshed out.
Poor narration, pretty good story

Characters are funny, flawed and I wish there were more books with them in it and in this well developed world. It filled in blanks in the history from Swordheart (my favourite from this world)
Rich world building and great characters
