Aetherium #0-7
Aetherium
This omnibus edition includes all eight books in the Aetherium fantasy series.
From steampunk thrillers and Viking horror to Indian mysteries and Egyptian gods, the Aetherium series weaves together the lives of heroes and heroines from every corner of the globe in an alternate world filled with familiar people, cultures, creatures, and myths.
Meet: Taziri Ohana, a brilliant inventor and airship pilot from Marrakesh; Wren of Ysland, a young witch from the far north; Omar Bakhoum, an immortal scholar and creator of gods; Asha of Kathmandu, a healer possessed by the soul of a dragon; and many more!
Titles include: Wreck of the Frost Finch, Assassins of the Steam Age, Legend of the Skyfire Stone, Revenge of the Exiles, Plague of the Demon King, Fury of the Witch Queen, Curse of the Golden Dragon, and Twilight of the Immortals.
Welcome to the world of AETHERIUM, where wondrous machines sail the seas and the skies, enormous beasts roam the earth, and the restless dead whisper to the living. Similar to our own world in the sixteenth century, AETHERIUM explores a reality in which many of the megafauna did not die out, including terror birds and saber-toothed cats, and where a devastating Ice Age continues to ravage Europe while African queens rule over the most advanced nations in the world. But strangest of all may be the science of controlling the souls of the dead using a golden metal with many names: sunsteel, orichalcum, and... AETHERIUM!
Keywords: steampunk, steampunk fantasy, steampunk thriller, historical fantasy, historical fiction, alternate history, airships, epic fantasy, dark fantasy, ghosts, demons, werewolves, witches, dragons, gods, Norse mythology, Egyptian mythology, women, feminist fantasy, African fantasy, Indian fantasy, Viking fantasy

Good series
I liked the way the stories came together at the end after all the separate story lines. Maybe a slight modification to the end but it isn't my work.

Although this book took me over a month to read, mainly because I had other things going on, it was well worth it. I loved the way one story flowed into the next one sometimes with the same characters sometimes with new ones added . All of the characters and plots were very well thought out and written. I would highly recommend this book to anyone who likes SteamPunk or Fantasy or anything in between. You will not be disappointed.
