Status Updates From Gears of a Mad God: A Steam...

I'm having the same problem with this book that others are having. It's not steampunk. The Lovecraftian part I don't mind. It's an interesting idea, just having a Cthulhu cult chasing the heroine around. It's the lack of steampunk (it's really dieselpunk with some clockwork thrown in) and what I think are unintentional anachronisms that are throwing me for a loop.

Props for using "lightening" instead of "lightning" in reference to the sun rising.

I'm having DCotE flashbacks...

Every cultist we've ever captured has been at least half mad. And, whatever is at the heart of their twisted religion, it seems to be something that the human mind can barely withstand.

Yep...definitely Lovecraft.
