Shaun Ingary is a dreamer. Dreamed of becoming a pilot like his father and travel the world, he and his mechanic of a best friend, Oliver, build their very first plane called the Peryton. A two-seater, propeller-powered monoplane with antlers, both of them experience the thrill of flight. A week later, his town burned to ashes. All because of a mysterious journal. Months after moving to the fortified capital of Granazia, Shaun thought that he and his family are safe, but he realizes that there's no safety and assurance inside the city walls. Trapped in the walled city of corruption, Shaun and his friends old and new need to find an escape, and help comes in a form of a mysterious thirteen year old boy who happens to know a lot more than his own good. Together they unravel the secrets hidden inside the walls, but despite their efforts, it was all in vain. And when the truth is out, Shaun makes his choice, and he may never see his family again, but he's not alone. He and his friends join a resistance group whose aim was to take back the capital, but during a potentially dangerous mission, Shaun and his friends are shocked to find something they didn't expect to find.

The Divine Armor of the Old Century（Book 2） by lingpeng216

This is one heck of a Victorian-style fantasy novel. Add a spoonful of steam engines to make that darned technology tree come alive! Add a spoonful of love and hatred, so everyone has good reasons to brawl! Add a spoonful of madness to lighten up this gloomy world, and finally, add a spoonful of natural disasters to play the main boss... and so on! Phew, that's a lot! ... Year 931 in the Engerwick Calendar. The city I reside in has been hailed as the most advanced in the West. The main reasons? The world-shaking steam technology, emerging technologies, and the wellspring of chaos. Can't deny it, but the fact remains that people keep flocking here to live. This city always gives you a glimmer of hope, whether it's lies or illusions, but it's so close, within arm's reach, making you risk life and limb. A city of hallucinations. I am one of those dream-chasers.
