Timekeeper by Tara Sim

 This is the first book in a steampunk fantasy series. It's set in a Victorian world about clocks that keep areas of London and other towns alive. Danny is a mechanic that goes and works on the clocks when there's a problem. He's been having some problems because of one of the clocks exploding and almost killing him. His father has been stuck in the town of Molton for the last three years and his mother hasn't been the same since. Problem him and his mother has been  having with each other is in some ways she blames him.

Cassie is a good friend of his and has been helping him keep his father's car running. Earlier in the day, The lead mechanic has sent him to the town of Enfield, The Colton tower. An apprentice is surposed to meet him there. After arriving he first doesn't see, then in the corner there's a blond boy standing there. What he doesn't know that the boy was the clock spirit. 

Danny has heard things about clock spirits but, had never seen one. It only took him twice to finally figure that out. The clock spirits name is Colton, just like the tower itself. 

Matthias was his dad's good friend and they would work together. He had fallen in love with a clock spirit and lost his job. Danny did feel bad about it. He still would go see Matthias to talk to him about things bothering him. 

When Danny heard that one of the clock towers had blown up. It reminded him of what happened to him. He keep thinking that some of the protesters were behind it, but he couldn't prove it. 

When he found some time, he would go see Colton and spend some time. He would tell Colton about lots of things. One day Colton kissed him and it surprised him but, also sent a chill through him. Danny knew that if he ever got caught he could get fired. 

Many things happen and the story is pretty fast paced. If you want to know how it ends you'll have to go pick up the book. It was really good. 

Well, I'm off to start a new book. Remember to pick up a great book.   

Heaven Official's Blessing by Tian Guan Ci Fu Vol. 1

 This book is a translated work from a web serial. It was turned into books. 

Xie Lian was a crown prince that did all he could to learn and study as much as possible. After being around for eight hundred year he ascended to godhood. He has done it about three times and it angered the other gods. He would end up leaving and only coming back when he had a question to ask. He didn't think that any of them would answer. 

Ling Wen came to him and asked him to check out what was going on in this town. So, back down to the mortal world he went. After listening to the people he knew he wouldn't be able to do it alone. So, back up he went to ask for help. 

No one said anything, so down he went. Sitting in a tea shop, two guys showed up. Nan Feng and Fu Yoa. They told Ling Wen that there to help but, they didn't like it. They would fight amoung themselves which was getting on Ling Wen's nerves. It took him a few times to get them to shut up. 

He told them, that he was going to dress up as a women in brides clothes. Because there was a green ghost taking them and know one knew where they were going. Then, this young girl told Ling Wen that she will help him. The make up was done so will, that people thought he was a she for real. It turned out that it really did work out quite will. 

You'll have to read this book to find out what really happens. Ling Wen did meet someone else later on. A young boy named San Lang and there was something strange about him that Ling Wen just couldn't figure out. Nan Feng and Fu Yoa knew there was something about that boy and they started paying lots of attention to that boy. Everything he does and even some of the strange things as will.

I'll just say this, it a very fast read. Quite interesting. Being I've never read a book like this before it will stay with me for awhile. 

Well, I'm off to start another book. Remember, to pick up a book. You might be surprised. It may be a new favorite. Have a good reading day. 

Words of Radiance by Brandon Sanderson

 This is the second book the Stormlight archive series. Its a 1303 page book and I'm sorry it's taken me so long to read this.

Shallan and Jasnah are on a boat, on their way to the shattered plains. They are trying to get there to share their findings. Shallan is still studying all she can to figure out as much as she can to help Jasnah out. But, the trip is shortened when she hears noises coming from down the way and finds Jasnah on the floor and covered in blood. She knows that Jasnah is dead and she may be the next. She has to think fast and ends up destorying the ship by sinking it. 

She ends up on shore pretty much hurt and hardly being able to walk. She hears noises again and its a few wagons going the other direction then, where she wants to go. She talks the driver and the few other he's with into taking her to the shattered plains. She promises him to pay him when she arrives safely. 

Kaladin ends up becoming a guard with the rest of bridge four. In the process of that, the other bridge crews are offered jobs too. He knows that there are things he doesn't understand. Syl is still there trying to help him as much as possible. He is now protecting Dalinar and the king, whom he really doesn't like. He tries to keep his feelings out of his job as much as he can. 

He also spends so time trying to practice what he knows he can do. These things will probably come in handy as the days go by. His life has been hard for awhile and he's learning to not let things get to him.

Dalinar has still been having visions. For Dalinar, he knows that the Knight Radiants are coming back. Navini has been helping him figure this out with him. His life is going to change and he just doesn't know yet. Navini knows that her daughter will be coming tell she finds out that Jasnah is dead. 

Things are going to change and besides the war that they have been fighting for years now. 

I don't want to blow the whole book. It's really a good book. I even think it's better then, the first book. Read it, starting with the first one. 

I'm going to go start my next book.
