The Kraken King | Meljean Brook
11 posts | 6 read | 21 to read
Experience the incredible adventure and heart-stopping romance of the Iron Seas in this thrilling steampunk tale from New York Timesbestselling author Meljean Brook. A former smuggler and thief, Ariq - better known as the Kraken King - doesn't know what to make of the clever, mysterious woman he rescues from an airship besieged by marauders. Unsure if she's a spy or a pawn in someone else's game, Ariq isn't about to let her out of his sight until he finds out . . . After escaping her fourth kidnapping attempt in a year, Zenobia Fox has learned to vigilantly guard her identity. While her brother Archimedes is notorious for his exploits, Zenobia has had no adventures to call her own - besides the stories she writes. But when she jumps at the chance to escape to the wilds of Australia and acquire research for her next story, Zenobia quickly discovers that the voyage will be far more adventurous than any fiction she could put to paper . . . Praise for the novels of the Iron Seas 'A stunning blend of steampunk setting and poignant romance.' Ilona Andrews, New York Times bestselling author 'I can't get enough of exploring the Iron Seas; every glimpse of this alternate history leaves me fascinated and hungry for more.'

The best book in the series! It was more than your typical romance, it was an adventure in over 500 pages! I loved every second of it. Brook has built an awesome world with her iron seas books and this was my favorite. Zenobia and Ariq were amazing characters and their story never got boring and was more than I expected! #romantsy #steampunk

Tnovo What was the first book in this series? Looks like something I would enjoy! 8y
Lauren_reading @Tnovo Iron duke is first, but there are some short stories too that don't need to be read to understand the series 8y
Lauren_reading Is a short story that's listed as first 8y
Tnovo Thank you! 8y

When I met Meljean Brook (who is super awesome) I told her I hadn't read the final book in her last series because I didn't want it to end. So this is how she signed this book - and it's been on my TBR for 2 years...so not 3! I'm so excited to read it! #romantsy #steampunk

Usagi I am extremely jealous right now!!!! 😱 8y

From all accounts, this went down very well last night. I'm told that it's better than Tanduay. 😅

Chachic Tanduay talaga ang peg? 8y

"The Kraken King" is my favorite book from Meljean Brook's Iron Seas series so far. Pulp adventure writer Zenobia Fox finds herself caught in the midst of a brewing battle over a war machine and suspected of being a spy. A great steam punk fantasy with a ton of action, a smart heroine and a solid romance. #steampunk #releasethekraken #booktober

Chachic I think I read the first book in the series but never continued it. 8y
LateNightReads I wasn't a huge fan of the first book. The series got a lot better after the Iron Duke. 8y
meandmybooks I really liked this series but The Kraken King has been sitting unread on my Kindle forever! The second book was probably my fave so far. 8y

#Recommendsday Meet Zenobia Fox. She's the ghost writer for her brother's adventure stories who decides to go off on her own adventure, a spinster adventure, damn it. And it's then that she meets Ariq, the Kraken King. Asian. Male. Hero. They do exist. Meljean Brook wrote one of the hottest male characters ever. I loved this steampunk romance adventure story and can't recommend it highly enough. I want a shelf of just Kraken Kings.
