1817 sees the first signs of recovery from the Year Without a Summer - and the beginning of the end of the journey of the airship "Dame Fortuna." The crew first accept a unique offer from the Shogun of Japan, traveling with the Dutch contingent from the island of Dejima into the isolationist nation. From there, their travels will take them through the English colonies in Australia and India, into darkest Africa, and eventually home to England. Along the way, confrontations loom, and both personal secrets and national conspiracies are uncovered. By the time a future queen is born, nothing less than the fate of England and the direction of world events are at stake. "Dawn of Steam: Rising Suns" is an alternate-history, emergent Steampunk epistolary novel, following after "Dawn of Steam: First Light" and "Dawn of Steam: Gods of the Sun."
