Twelve Hours Later is a must-read for fans of steampunk. --Paige Lovitt for Reader Views Myth! Intrigue! Dirigibles! Literacy! Support public libraries and explore a world of steampunk fiction! Twelve Hours Later is the brainchild of the Treehouse Writers, fifteen talented authors, artists, and poets, who came together at the Clockwork Alchemy Steampunk Convention to create this must-read steampunk anthology, with 50 percent of the proceeds donated to public libraries. Each author has contributed two stories, set 12 hours apart, and each story occupies a single hour of time. Together they fill a 24-hour day that is a whirlwind of steam, legends, spycraft, and the occasional forest demon dropping in for good measure.

Match wits with mystics! Try to resist the seductive power of chocolate or the magic of tiny mushrooms! Maybe even steal a treasure from a dragon. So put the kettle on, pour a strong cuppa, and curl up on the couch for a rollicking good read with Some Time Later. The clock is ticking …
