If the breakneck chase that sends Lucy Bluecrowne and Max Ault hunting down the last pieces of their war-ending engine aboard the privateer Left-Handed Fate lit you up, you’ll love the relentless momentum of Airborn. Cabin boy Matt Cruse gets swept into a quest to prove strange sky creatures exist while fending off pirates and corporate schemers on a luxury airship. Like the Fate’s cat‑and‑mouse run-ins and coded clues, Matt and Kate’s goal stays front-and-center, with daring raids, midair escapes, and secrets hidden in journals propelling every chapter.

You enjoyed how The Left-Handed Fate folds arcane research and maritime lore into the War of 1812—Lucy and Max poring over notebooks and legends to build something impossible. The Lie Tree offers that same dense, tactile world: Victorian science, island gossip, and a forbidden botanical marvel that feeds on lies. As Faith unravels coded notes and antiquarian mysteries—much like tracking the components of Max’s device—the setting thickens with folklore and clandestine societies until the truth feels as precarious as a ship in a squall.

If you liked slipping between perspectives on the Fate—Lucy and Max on one side, and the young British officer pressed into command complicating loyalties on the other—Leviathan doubles down. It alternates between Alek, a runaway Hapsburg heir, and Deryn, a girl disguised as a midshipman aboard a living airship, as their paths tangle on opposite sides of an oncoming war. The dual lenses echo the way the Fate’s crew and their British minder view the same chases and bargains from different angles, while the airship set pieces scratch that seafaring-adventure itch.

One joy of The Left-Handed Fate is how nobody’s hands are perfectly clean: a privateer ship, a British prize crew, and a plan to build a weapon that might save lives by terrifying means. If that grayness hooked you, Six of Crows delivers a crew of charming scoundrels on a near-impossible heist. Like the Fate’s uneasy alliance between Lucy, Max, and their reluctant British overseer, Kaz’s team constantly negotiates trust, leverage, and the cost of their choices—only with tighter corners, twistier betrayals, and a payoff as satisfying as making land after a storm.

If the Fate’s entanglement in War of 1812 politics—dodging blockades, bargaining with officials, and keeping Max’s invention out of the wrong hands—kept you turning pages, A Spy in the House brings that same cat‑and‑mouse tension ashore. Mary Quinn infiltrates a merchant household for a secret women’s spy agency, following financial threads that twist into national stakes. The covert meetings, double-bluffs, and strategic alliances echo the Fate’s skirmishes and negotiations, with a sharp heroine whose choices carry consequences as real as any broadside.
