As a Mad Scientist... it is in the job description to light up some beakers with mysterious glowing liquid and create. Today I am revamping the Tuesday Teaser meme hosted by Lady MizB @ Should Be Reading. Knicker Teaser is the twisted creation. I will provide you with Steampunkery Knicker Teasers and Literary Samplings as well.
Today Knicker Teaser is going to be a special delight! Not only is my creation being presented to you but is also featured as a Take Over post on Candace's Book Blog for Steampunkery Month. We are going to tease you twice. Oh my, that sounds delicious. A teaser from me & one from Candace as well!
Steamed by Katie MacAlister
Around and behind us, people emerged from behind crates, looking with disbelief as I waved the crowbar at him, more or less pushing him back toward his horse, which had stopped at the bottom of the ramp.
"For the love of the heavens!" Octavia yelled, bursting between two revolutionaries. "Jack, stop!"

Boneshaker
by Cherie Priest
"You've
got to understand," he said. He shouldered his armor and stuffed his
mask up under his arm. "This is a ... well, let's call it a controlled
community. It's not for everyone, and we like it just fine that way.
But every now and again, someone drops down off an airship or wriggles
up from down by the water, wanting to make a change. People get the
idea that there's something valuable in here, and people want to get
their fingers in that pie." He cocked his head at her mask, and at the
bag and rifle that were sitting on the table beside her. "Get your
stuff together."
Pg. 176
Now are those not the most wonderful Steampunkery teasers!?!
If you have not stopped by Candace's Book Blog the Mad Scientist highly suggests that you should stop by and take a peak. Her Steampunkery month has many wonderful posts.
A few include:
~ A interview with the Mad Scientist
~ Steampunkery Book Reviews
~ A interview with a Steampunkery Jewelry inventor
~ Giveaways of epic proportions. *Ok, just many different ones*
~ Knicker Teasers
~ Fashionable Fridays
*I'm currently creating a Steampunkery movie post. Shh... It is in the works but so far it is grand and will be worth the small wait. Keep an eye out on here and her blog as well.**
Today is a lovely day!
I leave you with a smile and a bow.
Ooooh so many books to read! Argh! I wish I had a machine to help me read faster!
