It is, and one of the book’s mercies is that in spite of their archetypal simplicity, Harland makes Col and Riff heroes you can root for. Refresh and try again. My colleague got carried away. It’s actually a pretty good book. Harland spent a lot of time on the fight scenes, both hand-to-hand and gunfights. The population of people is made up of the upper class citizens including Colbert the main male character , the menials the servants to the upper class and the filthies including Riff the main female character who are considered a “different species”. Now everything is coming up roses. Col caught the words “grandson of Sir Mormus Porpentine,” then the door closed behind them, and they moved off down the corridor.

Instead, it is a place that is rife with hypocrisy, deception, and unspeakable suffering. You’re too young to know what’s good for you. It’s not a bad book. A steampunk coming of age story Worldshaker tells the story of Col Porpentine, grandson of Sir Mormus Porpentine, Supreme Commander of the industrial juggernaut Worldshaker. Don’t panic, he told himself. I couldn’t seem to figure out what time frame this book takes place.

But the entertainment value is never more than superficial. I’ve been having difficulty writing a review for this book, though I’m not sure why. Overall if you like sci-fi, steampunk, YA historical novels with a little bit of seriousness, you might really like this book. I did like a few things worldsjaker Now seen as “contaminated”, Col begins to question Upper Deck life.

Undoubtedly some exist more for the sake of parody than others, drawing attention to various follies within society and human nature. She was his prisoner.

No matter how hard he tries, Col cannot escape the knowledge that life as he knows it is based on a lie.

Throughout the book Col becomes unrespected because other people found out he was talking to the filthies. Both books say this a trend that worodshaker to stop. It’s actually a pretty good book.

I felt like she didn’t fit with the romance idea that the author was trying to create. She is fast and deadly. Overall, the book is a great book that is thought provoking. His name pretty much says it all.

Summaries and Excerpts: Worldshaker / Richard Harland.

An iron colossus, mechanical mountain, Worldshaker is divided into the Upper Decks inhabited by the elite classes who run the juggernaut society, and the Below, inhabited by the Filthies. In terms of credibility, readers have to suspend disbelief quite a lot to accept that juggernauts can provide accommodation and comfortable living conditions for so many people, as well as how the Filthies were coerced onto the juggernaut in the first place.

See all 4 questions about Worldshaker…. I had to read this book for school, and honestly I thought it would be super boring worldsgaker the storyline and the fact that its so fast paced make it a great book! But things are about to get worse.

On his tour of the ship with his grandfather, Col learns that food is sent to the filthies via a chute, and so the next time Riff shows up, he escorts her to the nearest food chute which is a long way from his room and sends her down it.

Worldshaker is a steam-punk novel, part of a dilogy about the education of Pllot Porpentine, grandson of the master of Worldshaker, Sir Marmus Porpentine. She’s so worn out by this effort that she has to repair to Col’s room to sit out an attack of the wilts and the vapors. Col is just about having a fit over her.

Fortunately for Riff she is both, and also a leader of the revolutionary council. Col’s family members have an English accent and the work breeches is mentioned numerous times. They spend much time together, and she learns to read, and he learns to fight and takes down ten opponents when the Squellinghams try to beat him up at school.

Worldshaker

As a way of saying thank you to the world for being kind to me, I set up a website of writing tips for fantasy and SF authors. The only character who evinces anything like realistic moral ambiguity is Col’s sister Gillabeth, clearly smarter and more capable than Col is in so many ways, who must sit back and watch as Col is named heir to the command of Worldshaker by their grandfather, supreme commander Sir Mormus — simply because Col is male and she isn’t.

Riff escapes the solitude of “down below”, where the filthies are kept, and ends up in Col’s room.

Colbert, or Col, lives on a city ship known polt Worldshaker. Since he was the eldest son, he was being groomed as the new supreme commander almost from birth.

Col’s world begins to unravel with the sudden appearance of Riff, a young Filthy who hides in his cabin.
