A short story. Our narrator lies in a hospital bed. He was told a secret, and now he can't forget it.The Kraken - Chapters 1 & 2 FREEThe Melville Files 0 "Where other authors give us the trappings of steampunk without real substance, Jonas Cobos infuses his world thoroughly with the substance and spirit of the genre, 110% full of steampunk ideas and motivations. And he did something few other writers have done...made steampunk goggles actually functional tools rather than mere fashion statements." Ralph E. Vaughan "After reading this, I felt I definitely got a tempting taste of what Cobos has to offer as an author, and I can't wait to see where this series heads next. Whatever the destination, I'm definitely on board for the journey. Highly recommended." Sam G. "People that have enjoyed the work of Jules Verne or H.G.Wells will take to Jonas' writing style. His clear, bold writing is well paced and consistent throughout, a well structured read. Although it is short, it sets up what could be a great series, filled with more of the same twists and characters." Tom Condal City. 1871.
