Chronicles of Steele: Raven: The Complete Story
by Pauline Creeden
Genre: YA Steampunk, YA Sci Fi
Blurb: Human life has value.
The poor living in the gutter are as valuable as the rich living in a manor.
The scoundrel is no less valuable than the saint.
Because of this, every life a reaper takes must be redeemed.
Raven has lived by this first tenet since she was trained by her father to become a reaper. But since his death, she’s been spending years redeeming the lives she’s taken. By her count, she’s even and it’s time for that life to end. If she settles down and becomes a wife, she might just feel human again. But on the way to the life she thinks she wants, the baron of New Haven asks her to complete a task which she cannot ignore… Just when Raven decides to give up on her life as an assassin, she’s pulled right back in.

RJ'S REVIEW from Marcie
4 of 5 stars
I had never heard of steampunk until I read this book. This novel was very well done. Chronicles of Steele: Raven: The Complete Story was well written and has a good storyline. This is definitely a book I could recommend to a younger audience without hesitation. I look forward to reading more by this author.
