Activation by Chris Paton

Seconded to work on the classified steam-powered Wallendorf Emissaries, a young technician is tasked with activating and field testing a single machine under the watchful eye of his secretive chaperone.
Emissary Metal: ACTIVATION is the first of an exciting series of Steampunk Adventures – quick reads perfect for a clockwork afternoon – set in the world of Hanover & Singh. From Goodreads.



  

It was interesting to read about the start of the Emissaries that I have read about in the Metal Emissary series. I wasn't quite taken by the two main characters Karl and Seffi but this was only 60 pages so this might change in the future books.
