Dude, I have totally got to read this book now

Having discovered cmpriest by way of mdhenry and blue_succubus and their Seattle Author Posse, I must note that:

1. I am quite looking forward to reading Four and Twenty Blackbirds, now parked on my To Read shelf along with blackaire's Night Life and yuki_onna's In the Night Garden, and

2. As quoted right off cmpriest's LJ, this sounds like the coolest novel-to-be I have heard about in some time:

west coast steampunk Victoriana book with zombies, air ships, toxic gas clouds, mad scientists, dead folk heroes, secret criminal societies, and Bonus! extended deleted scenes from the Civil War

SOLD. I want my copy now, please!
