Heart of Iron

The mix of Victorian-inspired technology and supernatural powers creates such a unique world. I wonder what inspired this particular mash-up and how much research went into it.

Their push and pull felt so real, but I couldn't help but feel anxious about whether their love could survive the political intrigue around them.

The details about the technology and society made the story feel so rich. I'm curious whether the author envisioned this setting from the start or developed it as they wrote.
