Alternate History Steampunk Fashion Dystopia Science Romance
  ---
    Julien is a regulation-compliant young presser at the local dhobitorium, and the best Londoni iron man there is. When a Code-violating dandy recruits him to arrange a wardrobe malfunction for a prominent general of the Hauteorian Guard, Julien is faced with the realization that he may have skills to do something more than comply.  
    
    Partnered with dandy sitar-player Murphy, Julien joins a diverse crew of rebel agents associated with powers in the rising Fashion Capital of Cairo. On the run from the Fashion Police, Julien travels by steam-cabriolet, submari, and flying solar barque to distant lands. 
    
    With a sister serving in the Fashionista's elite Hauteorian Guard, a mother unseen since her arrest, and allies in multiple Fashion Capitols, Julien's loyalties are frequently tested. Julien is determined to help others realize their dreams of self-expression, but if the balance of powers between the Fashion Capitols shifts too far, the world may know a Second Great War

The Virus Within: The Unranked (Book 4)

50 parts Complete

Season 4 of The Virus Within Trinity is familiar with zombies, being one herself, but when strange zombies start appearing, she realizes that the world she knew might be changing yet again. When a dangerous set of scientific notes are discovered, Trinity and her friends don't realize anything is wrong until a frantic radio call comes in. Unaware of the notes, they race to the south and struggle to determine where the strange zombies came from. The zombies are unlike any ranks previously seen, and they aren't as predictable. Some have new tricks hidden up sleeves, forcing any Stronghold they encounter to quickly adapt to the new challenge or risk being overrun. Secrets never remain hidden, and zombie apocalypses never make life easy.
