Emmeline Muchamore is a well-bred young lady hiding explosive family secrets. She needs to marry well, and quickly, in order to keep her family respectable. But when her brass heart malfunctions, she makes a desperate choice to steal the parts she needs to repair it and survive.

She is unable to explain her actions without revealing she has a steam-powered heart, so she is arrested for theft and transported to Victoria, Australia – right in the midst of the Gold Rush.

Now that she’s escaped the bounds of high society, iron manacles cannot hold her for long.

The only metal that really matters is gold.

Fun steampunk adventure based on historical events

2017年11月7日にドイツでレビュー済み

Amazonで購入

Young heroine with a steam-powered brass-heart (let's not question how one can have a boiler inside their body without burning the rest of their flesh into delicious human meat...) tries to save her once-rich family from poverty, but gets sends to Australia for her troubles. Adventures ensue!

It's a great setting, and I love the idea of different metals having magical properties and being kind of empathic towards people (ie if you were iron, you become stronk!). The heroine of course is particularly in-tune with metals, perhaps because she has so much of it in her body. She also realizes that now that she's removed from British society, she suddenly doesn't need to care about marriage and other social trappings so much anymore, and she really comes into her own ...

... along the ride are two companions: a woman and a man. This I had a bit of an issue with: the woman seems fun enough, but not much on her is provided. I can't say I felt I really knew her at the end of the story. That also was somewhat true for the guy, but moreover I just didn't like him. If I'm cheering for criminals, I need to feel justified in doing so - the heroine trying to save her own life was understandable (how can one blame her for doing that?), her female companion trying to get out of a marriage she doesn't want is equally understandable, but the guy with his odd bravado (or whatever that was supposed to be) just didn't sit well for me.

So I wasn't quite as invested in the character's tale as I should have been.

Next: the book is over at, what, 70% or so. Now, it's not one of those where these loads of previews or whatever at the end; instead there's a CYOA thing and some background information on real Australian history. Wasn't uninteresting, but, well. It's not the same as more of the tale I actually bought the book for ...

Still, steampunk fun. Can't be too hard on it. It was entertaining enough, just felt like it could have been better.

A good, fun read

"Fun" is really the best way to describe this book. The plot is fun, the characters are fun (Matilda rules!), the magic of metals is fun, the historical "Easter Eggs" are fun!

And what's the best way to finish a fun book? Banks then gives the reader a fun Interactive Fiction story at the end! I was dubious about an IF because my copy is on kindle, but Banks makes use of links so it is easy for digital readers to play along.

I'm not "champing at the bit" to get the next book, but I know I will continue this series because I want to see where it goes. Looking forward to more fun, even if the series takes a serious turn, because Banks has successfully made me invest in these characters.

Oh, now that was a fun story! Took me places I never expected to go, and really enjoyed exploring. This novel embraces the true heart of Adventure, and that is something that I didn't realise I'd been missing in everything else I've read lately. Emmeline Muchamore is a spunky young lady with a more compassionate heart (and a very unusual one) than she seems to know she has. Like her physical heart, her metaphorical one seems to take unexpected turns throughout her journey, and that is a delightful thing to follow.

Australiana Steampunk

2017年7月12日にアメリカ合衆国でレビュー済み

Amazonで購入

Heart of brass is a book that hits you on a few different angles. As an Australian, there's the angle of the country's history, related in such a way as to make it exciting again after years and years of boring history classes. As a writer, there's the portrayal of characters each as developed and robust as each other, working together. And as a reader, there's a great story that, while starting off slow, brings you in with a fun excitement that had me fail to notice I'd just spent 2 1/2 hours and six cups of tea reading it on the final stint – once the characters hit Ballarat, it felt more like fifteen minutes.
Emmeline, while originally a truly annoying character that finds trouble without even intending on it, is someone I can see myself now following through two more books. I'm happy to see her go on, and hopefully use her skills to benefit her journey, rather than hiding them. For a steampunk story, there is relatively little steampunk in the pages, for which I am moderately grateful, but I do believe that the use of gears ad wheels should have found itself better off in the final battle.
And the ending? What the…? That caught me off guard. Aside from the scene of naked bathing in the river, and the incredibly uptight modesty of Victorian England, there is little to build the apparent attraction between the characters – though I suppose that the magic of lead poisoning probably goes some way to explaining the kick in the pants that the infatuation received.
Overall, one of the more enjoyable Australian- set books I've read in a long time. It's given me a hankering to go looking in to the history of the Eureka Stockade, which I've never wanted to do before, owing to cultural over-saturation. If it can manage to send me researching, it's definitely something you can get into.

First reviewed on the Beyond the Words podcast.
