The Mechanica Wars: Savage Machines Are Afoot...
At
the age of twenty, Kanze Zenjiro's bloody footprints mark the bodies
of those who stood in his way to protect the throne of Nihon. Now,
the tyrannical Iberian Empire is bent on destroying his kingdom, and
they send their steam-powered giants and iron spiders against
him.
Zen embarks on a quest that takes him on the most dangerous journey of his life. To succeed, Zen must live up to his nickname, the Dragonfly Warrior, and kill all his enemies with only a sword and a pair of six-guns. He is called upon to somehow survive a test of faith and loyalty in a world so cruel and merciless, it borders on madness.

Congrats Jay!
More about Jay:
After
doing some freelance writing and editing for more than a dozen years,
Jay decided to stop procrastinating and pursue his dream of being a
novelist. He's been blogging for over eight years, and even had a
comedy podcast syndicated all over the internet. All of that was fun,
but all the steampunk-inspired stories in his head just wouldn't
leave him alone. Jay spends his days working in medical sales, but he
can be found toiling over his laptop late at night when all is quiet.He draws inspiration from all over: H.G. Wells, Jules Verne, Shakespeare, Ray Bradbury, Douglas Adams, and Isaac Asimov.
And
Jay loves cookies.
