The Lost Kingdom is fun-filled coming-of-age adventure. Being Steampunk, of course, it is set in a somewhat alternate historical setting of the world and this novel, it's in mid 18th century of America as the English settlers are in conflict against the French. The story is told from the perspective of a 13 yo boy, Billy Bartram, who is to accompany his father and a secret society of philosophers and scientists in search of an ally in this conflict; an ally which has a mythical reputation. And they will be travelling in a flying ship!
There would be amazing things to discover, conflicts and betrayals, but most of all, lots of growing up to do. I really do love the ending for this protagonist.
