Here’s a simple story map of the Entire Steam Empire Chronicles!
Hi all,
I realized that I’ve been missing a useful tool for all the newcomers to the Steam Empire Chronicles! It’s a story map!
Obviously, when I update it with the still in progress novella, it will fit beautifully into this. Where does the Last Gladiator fit? It’s a prequel that I think is best read AFTER you read all the other novels and novellas!
Midnight Meetings in Mulhussen fill in a lot of blanks, but leave more questions as yet unanswered.
Greetings, welcome back to the fireplace. Sit down and let Tallavanor fill your mind and keep you distracted from this ‘social distancing’ that is all the rage (Editor: Seriously though, please follow CDC guidelines to keep yourself safe with COVID 19).Last time, Tallavanor and the crew had a rendez-vous with Gregario’s contact. Today, Tallavanor takes part in a clandestine midnight meeting at a Brothel. How clandestine could it be? Let’s see as Tallavanor takes it away.

Tallavanor’s back with another episode of our mystery investigation in Mulhussen.
It’s time for a Covid 19 edition of Tallavanor’s Tales! I’ve got several more episodes planned out, just in time for the next (digital) meetup this weekend. Last time, Tallavanor and his companions arrived in Mulhüssen, finding themselves thrust into the mystery and political intrigue only a massive trading city can provide. With Gregario providing both a contact and a sense of fashion awareness, I suppose it’s Tallavanor’s time to take it away.

I hope that this will help flatten the curve and keep more people I know healthy.
Good news – its a great time to read books!
