This is a great little novella that explains bridges the gap between #2 and #3 in the Steampunk Chronicles. It tells how Jack Dandy came to find his "dark discovery" and what he thinks and feels about himself, his father and "love." It's a quick read - it took me an hour maybe - and worth it if you love the Steampunk Chronicles, which I totally do!

Super short - read it in a few minutes, but it's a good little glimpse into another of the Garde. I do wish, though, that the titles of the books didn't all have "I Am Number Four" in them. Makes things confusing - "Have I read this one or not?"

I do dig the whole legacies idea though. How cool would it be to move things with your mind?

Anyway, the only reason I gave it 3 stars is because I wanted MORE. Sadly, 11 pages is just a tease.

If you want to read it right now, go here.
