Cogsworth goes on a journey through the darkest parts of London with his Automaton foreman to find the real reason for joy and love during the holidays. Inspired by A Christmas Carol, this steampunk novellette will inspire goodwill and cheer to everyone during the holiday season.
If you’re looking for a steampunk Christmas short story, grab a copy of Cogsworth Finding. This was such a delightful read. Yauger really nailed down the worldbuilding and characterization in just a few pages.
Such a sweet retelling of A Christmas Carol. I love the easy way the author setup a steampunk version of the times. And especially liked the automoton Criggins, he's a wonderful character, with wise words. Wish there was more to read in this same world. I know I'll read this one again next Christmas.
This was such a charming holiday read. If you're looking for Christmas Carol vibes with steampunk flare, this is it. A quick read with Dickens Faire aesthetics and even a pet cephalopod. What a treat!
