Order of Clockwork Century Books
American author Cherie Priest's Clockwork Century series transports readers to an alternate 1880s America where the Civil War continues to tear the nation apart. This reimagined timeline diverges from our own through English meddling, revolutionary transportation systems, and the early discovery of Texas oil—fifty years ahead of schedule. While these changes have accelerated technological advancement, they've also unleashed terrifying consequences that drive many Americans to flee the war-torn battleground states in search of sanctuary in the western territories.
Priest launched this captivating steampunk/alternate history series in 2009 with Boneshaker, and continues to expand this richly detailed world. The Clockwork Century novels are listed below in their original publication sequence, which follows the chronological order of events:
