There’s a lot of badassery in this book - ancient magical swords, bloody battles, automatons and a necromancer rising dead people! Steampunk is one of my favorite genres, so when I heard about Shadows of Asphodel, a dieselpunk...

We know that Germany was preparing for the big war and that a lot of army and arms were included. But this book will show you that...
