Now I'd like to have a second to talk about our heroine, considering, well she deserves it! Verity Newton, aka Liberty Jones, is admittedly amazing! She is incredibly brave, yet real, which makes her so much more likable. I will say that there were a few times where I felt she acted a picayune out of grapheme past being a little, how should we say, wussy. But it was merely a few, short times and I estimate it was more fitting for the time menstruum because most Victorian Era women weren't exactly known for their strength, which is annoying but it'south history. And Verity really proves them wrong with what she is willing to do and with what she does. There are also other strong female characters that rock as well, so that's actually nice to see.
The next office I'grand going to talk near will not give away spoilers but it might requite off hints so if y'all desire to be actually surprised and then I advise you don't read!
Nosotros learn more about some of the primary characters which is really great. One big matter, which I won't say, happens and I was so happy because I accept been waiting for it to happen since the first volume! I have had smashing suspicions. Hopefully that won't give abroad as well much. And Henry, oh Henry. I accept e'er really liked him and loved that he was a lilliputian reckless, merely dang. This book fabricated me question a fourth dimension or two if he merely wasn't stupid because of how bold and daring he was but at the same time I actually loved it! It kept things a little suspenseful and really fun! Plus, it reminds you of the risks that are having to be fabricated by true revolutionaries.
Overall, this book is really fun and I truly loved it! I just wish I knew someone who read information technology too so I could talk about information technology, because I could definitely say more. This is a great serial and I and then recommend it to anyone, especially if yous like historical fiction, fantasy, and/or take chances blazon of books. I can't wait to become the fourth book!

I think this series is a lot of fun, just this volume was the weakest in information technology. The plot in here seemed thinner than usual, making the book experience as if it were one long scene (efforts to become out word that the revolution is about to kickoff and that independence has been declared) instead of a more than complex book with plots and subplots. It felt similar a lot of the potential action and details were glossed over and nearly read like a short story about a atypical event in an try to transition between the previous book and what I assume is the forthcoming volume.
While the volume overall was a little weaker than I'd hoped, there were still some overnice parts to information technology. Verity's family unit history is explored a little more in hither (a guess I'd made earlier was proved right!), and the potential romance between Verity and her employer (and magister and thus off-limits) was besides elaborated on a bit. And, of course, the whole idea that people are starting to become excited and broken-hearted for revolution, beginning to piece of work together, was interesting. I only wish I'd felt more excited reading about this!
I'm not sure how many books are supposed to be in this series; I thought it was a trilogy because only 3 books are out, but this volume ended on a chip of a cliff-hanger so there has to be at least one more than! I don't call up this volume necessarily stands strongly on its ain, just it was a decent enough read in this world that kept me entertained for a while.

Rebels rejoice! Ms. Swendson is back with Book Three in the Rebel Mechanics/Insubordinate Magisters serial! You know, the alternate history one where the American Revolution starts in the 1880'south(instead of the 1770's) the rebels (now in the Steampunk Era) take machines (can you say hugger-mugger railroads & airships, amid many others!) whereas the Brits have magic (guess why the rebellion failed in 1776?)!

she'south likewise (unknown to the Brits) Liberty Jones, the rebels' secret weapon, because she can write incendiary opposition newspaper articles & pamphlets which fuel the flames and keep the rebellion going strong!).
Again, I really accept enjoyed the character development in this young adult series. Fifty-fifty Miss Newton's charges immature Olive and Rollo get their moments!
And I adored the rebels' use of "culling lyrics" to Christmas carols as their way to spread their views amongst the colonial masses! Just a fellow choir singer would have come upwardly with this as a clever and surprisingly constructive tactic!
I and then love Goodreads. From the writer's Goodreads page: "And before anyone asks, yes, the series volition continue. I'k planning at least i more book." YAY! I am so delighted to be looking

iii.vThe third volume in the Rebels serial picks up presently later the second book with Vertiy standing to work with both the rebel magisters and the insubordinate mechanics. Lord Henry is in hiding after escaping prison. Meanwhile, the revolution is building. I like Verity and how strong she is, she is taking risks past working as a spy equally well as writing political pieces under an alias. I like her interactions with the children she is governess for. I really like her interactions with Lord Henry and how they are trying to pause the barriers that divide them. This is an alternating history book that is taking the Revolutionary War and imaging what could take been if things occurred differently.
This has been a fun series to read so far. I wait forrad to the next book in the series.

Rebels Rising was just as strong every bit the previous installments. I daresay it had more of its elements than its predecessors- the espionage, historical references, activeness, and romance. There was one detail revelation that I didn't come across coming and the longer I idea virtually it, I was surprised I didn't connect the dots earlier. Thankfully, I got to see as much of Henry as I did in the first and second book.😅
I don't empathise why so few readers have read these books. Maybe it's the amount of publicity information technology's getting? Whatever the reason is, this serial is underrated and I encourage more than people to try the first book out.
I'll read the fourth installment, though I imagine information technology will be at least a twelvemonth or two before information technology releases.

(Granted, the characters should probably exist surprised and treat it with gravity; I personally just felt very meh about it as a reveal.)
The globe continues to grow and entertain. It's also overnice that Verity revisits some locations we know from previous books, but we see them in new means now that the military has more of a presence and they're focused more on suppressing revolutionaries. There'southward a new tension in the prose that perfectly underscores this change.
I have 1 quibble that really threw me out of the cease. In that location's a sequence in which Verity is escaping along a steep hill and the geography is extremely disruptive. It read to me similar the capacity didn't see enough editorial review, or that whomever was reviewing it, wasn't looking very hard at description and continuity. (There is another continuity mistake earlier in which 2 events either happen nighttime/next morning time or nighttime/a full twenty-four hour period later.) This might not carp other people as much every bit it does me, so only go along in mind that I spend a lot of time overanalyzing my own clarification.
There'southward clearly at least 1 more than book coming in this series, and I can't look to read it.

I have stopped reading "Rebel Ascent" for the time being. It has simply get too boring. The heroine (I can't even remember here proper name at the moment) is too cautious, proper, and yeah, Deadening. Thus, the novel has become boring. There is also little action. How can there be a revolution when the primary protagonists are and so cautious and their deportment are also timid. I was expecting more excitement in this installment. Alas, there is very little. 04/28/17

I besides tin can't wait until Henry finds out that Mrs. Talbot was a spy in the house, simply for Elinor. That cracked me up and he is definitely going to love information technology.

I love how things were heating upwardly in this i. Especially signing the Annunciation and handing it to the governor. Then Henry gets shot, which, let'southward confront it, we all knew was going to happen. He does have a bad addiction of turning up with a gunshot wound of some sort. I was thinking how far nosotros have come over three books and I will be intrigued to run across what events unfold in the quaternary. Long gone are the days Verity's but concern was delivering articles to the rebels sneaking in and out of the house.
The fourth book needs to come up out soon! I need to know what happens next!

There'southward a significant twist correct almost the end that changes things...and makes the revolution essential to Verity's future happiness.
(view spoiler)[ Verity's male parent is the governor...did not see that one coming. And just as she learns she has a family--that E is her sister and the children are her nieces and nephew--she learns that as his girl she'south likely the simply person that might get away afterward giving the governor the rebel'south deceleration of independence. In doing and so she loses her role as governess and is a fugitive until the revolution is resolved. They must exist successful--both and then she can be with her family unit then she can exist with Henry as a magister/one-half-magister pair. (hide spoiler)]
I wonder how this series will resolve...it's so hard to illustrate the extent of a revolution in a few books. It'south taken 3 books to get to this breaking point. The whole revolution will certainly exist more complicated. I am very interested to see how Swendson wraps things upward...

Alarm: This is not the final book of the series and man did i wish i know that going into the story. I honestly idea for a good portion of Rebels Rising that information technology would wrap up all the loose ends...not so much.Rebels Rise is the third story of the Insubordinate Mechanics serial by Shanna Swendson where the original American Revolution went very differently because the English armies and upperclass had magic.
By at present we take already met the Insubordinate Mechanics and the Rebel Magisters and learned all bout the plight of the people. THose with magical powers are in ability and seen as the upperclass and those without power are the lower class. But of course not everythign is peachy keen. There are rebels wihtin both circles who are unhappy with their rulers on the other side of the ocean and the taxes.
Rebels RIsings finds Verity and the household she works for under scrutiny after Henry escapes and is on the run. Both Rebel parties are eager to amp up uprising plans by potentialy forming an aliance with one some other. Verity in the mean time spies on the goings of the Governer and sends tips to the insubordinate movements.
Information technology has been a while since i read books 1 & two but I was able to get right back into the story within the first couple capacity. I love where the plot is going, even though i still have to wait for the actual conclusion in hopefully book four.
At that place weren't actually whatsoever new characters, merely the dynamics of the ones nosotros take already been introduced to have grown and a delight to read. THere are some twists that appear in book 3 that are a fun surprise and really add another layer to Verity'due south journey.
Tin can't look to see where the rebels are taken in book 4.

Once upon a time ...A little girl learned to amuse herself by making upwardly stories in her head. She turned everyday activities into exciting adventures, and she made up new adventures for characters from her favorite movies, TV shows and books. Then one twenty-four hours she realized that if she wrote down those stories, she'd have a volume! But that was crazy, she idea. Real people don't become novelists. That was similar deciding you were going to be a movie star. You couldn't but get and do it.
But, it turns out, you can, and she did. She realized her dream of becoming a novelist and seeing her stories in bookstores.
And so she started to wig herself out by writing about herself in the third-person.
This is her story.
The Novelist's Journey
As I said above in that bit of silliness, I've e'er been a writer at heart. My favorite way to play was to create stories and act them out with my Fisher-Price people, my Barbie dolls or myself and a box of play clothes. If none of those things were bachelor, I could only sit down and brand up stories in my head. I occasionally got into trouble for existence a little as well creative, such as the time when I embellished a bit on my kindergarten experiences (where's the dramatic hook in coloring, cut out and pasting?).
When I was in seventh grade and a bit erstwhile for Fisher-Price people, Barbie dolls or the clothes-up box, I started writing these stories down in spiral notebooks. Later, I constitute an sometime transmission typewriter, taught myself to type, and so wrote a lot of first capacity of novels on information technology. I still hadn't figured out how to actually be a working novelist who gets paid for writing (finishing a book instead of writing a lot of commencement capacity might have been a good commencement), and then when it came time to go to college, I went to journalism school at the Academy of Texas. While getting my degree in broadcast news, I managed to structure a curriculum that might also help me in my real career plans. I took fencing (which I idea would exist useful for writing fantasy novels), an astronomy course on the search for extraterrestrial life (in case I wanted to write science fiction), psychology, interpersonal communication, and parageography (the geography of imaginary lands).
I got serious nigh pursuing my novel-writing ambitions before long after I got my first job in public relations (Tv reporting, it turns out, would have taken away from my writing time) when I started joining local writing organizations and reading books on how to write a novel. So I took the large step of registering for a writing conference. With the registration fee, you could enter ii manuscripts in a contest that went with the conference. I figured if I was paying that much coin, I'd get the most out of information technology, then I wrote two entries. At the conference, I met a real, alive editor, who encouraged me to submit, and one of my entries won the science fiction/fantasy category of the contest. I hurried to finish the novel the editor had asked for, then mailed a proposal.
She ended up rejecting the book, but encouraged me to keep trying. I ended up selling that novel elsewhere, so sold ii more books to that publisher earlier I had another idea for that original editor. That volume ended up selling, and so 1 more than.
And then I hitting the wall. Due to a number of circumstances, some of which weren't my fault and some of which were, I didn't sell anything else for eight years. But then I had the idea that became Enchanted, Inc., I wrote it, sold it, and here I am.
Other Life Stuff
I think I need to get a few more than hobbies or something else going on in my life that isn't related to reading or writing because currently my bio in my books is shorter than the "well-nigh the typeface" section. Aye, a typeface has a more than interesting life than I practice.
When I'm not writing, I'g well-nigh often reading. Otherwise, I enjoy watching science fiction TV shows and then discussing them on the Internet, working crossw
