Publisher's summary
The first three books in the Great Iron War steampunk dystopian adventure series, collected together in a digital box set. Join Jacob, Whistler, General Rommond, and Taberah as they fight on land, sea, and sky to push back the forces of the ruthless Regime.
1. Hopebreaker
In the world of Altadas, there are no more human births. The Regime is replacing the unborn with demons, while the Resistance is trying to destroy a drug called Hope that the demons need to survive.
Between these two warring factions lies Jacob, a man who profits from smuggling contraceptive amulets into the city of Blackout. He cares little about the Great Iron War, but a chance capture, and an even more accidental rescue, embroils him in a plot to starve the Regime from power.
When Hope is an enemy, Jacob finds it harder than he thought to remain indifferent. When the Resistance opts to field its experimental landship, the Hopebreaker, they find they might just have a chance to win this war.
2. Lifemaker
The Regime is on the hunt, forcing the Resistance to take refuge aboard the Lifemaker, an advanced submarine that houses a special cargo: a handful of women who can still give birth to human children.
Locked inside his tin can prison, Jacob can no longer escape his role in the Great Iron War. He's forced to face life as a father, life as a soldier, and life beneath the deep blue sea. More than anything, he's forced to face himself.
To evade the Regime's own submersibles, all parties must work together, but tensions are high, and not everyone on board is looking out for the greater good. As they descend into the deeps, they quickly learn that not all monsters work for the Regime.
3. Shyshaker
The Resistance takes to the clouds aboard the Skyshaker, the newly-completed airship aimed at dominating the heavens, when the land far below has become a hellish place ruled by demons.
General Rommond fixes his attention on the city of Blackout, the old capital of the world, controlled by the Treasury, who are themselves controlled by the ruthless Regime. That centre of the old civilised world will either shift allegiance to the Resistance, or it'll burn to the ground.
From sky pirates and mob bankers to the feared mechanical men of the Iron Guard, Jacob and his new family of freedom fighters will face greater challenges than they've ever faced before. As bombs drop from the sky like the iron tears of gods, there are other revelations that'll shake the foundations of everyone struggling to save humanity."

Story
My name is Kazimir Wolfe. People call me "Kaz", except they don’t. I never use my real name; it’s too dangerous, for me and for anyone I meet. I’m on the run from the law, who think I killed my aunt, and from whoever did kill her, because they want to finish the job. So, I move around a lot, working construction or whatever job I can find. It’s a lonely life. I don’t let anyone get close...people who get close to me end up dead. Why? I’m a wizard. The world’s only wizard, as far as I know.

We were fighting on the wrong side of a war we couldn't win. And that was the good news. The Ruhar hit us on Columbus Day. There we were, innocently drifting along the cosmos on our little blue marble, like the native Americans in 1492. Over the horizon come ships of a technologically advanced, aggressive culture, and BAM! There go the good old days, when humans only got killed by each other. So, Columbus Day. It fits. When the morning sky twinkled again, this time with Kristang starships jumping in to hammer the Ruhar, we thought we were saved.

More than two centuries after World War III poisoned the planet, the final bastion of humanity lives on massive airships circling the globe in search of a habitable area to call home. Aging and outdated, most of the ships plummeted back to Earth long ago. The only thing keeping the two surviving lifeboats in the sky are Hell Divers - men and women who risk their lives by skydiving to the surface to scavenge for parts the ships desperately need.

For dinosaurs, it was a big rock. For humans: Coronal Mass Ejection (CME). When the Earth is hit by the greatest CME in recorded history (several times larger than the Carrington Event of 1859), the combined societies of the planet's most developed nations struggle to adapt to a life thrust back into the Dark Ages. In the United States, the military scrambles to speed the nation's recovery on multiple fronts including putting down riots, establishing relief camps, delivering medical aid, and bringing communication and travel back on line. Just as a real foothold is established in retaking the skies (utilizing existing commercial aircraft supplemented by military resources and ground control systems), a mysterious virus takes hold of the population, spreading globally over the very flight routes that the survivors fought so hard to rebuild.

In the beginning, the gods destroyed the world. Five hundred years later, things haven’t gotten much better for humans. The demigods that were left behind to guard over humanity have been using them as fodder for an endless civil war between themselves, and the humans just go on dutifully slaughtering each other, battle after battle. It’s not all bad, though. Perry McGown makes his living off those bloody, stinking battlefields. He works on a crew that reclaims all the spent shell casings. But if anyone found out that he was a deserter from the war, he’d be executed for heresy.

Story
In the beginning, the gods destroyed the world. Five hundred years later, things haven’t gotten much better for humans. The demigods that were left behind to guard over humanity have been using them as fodder for an endless civil war between themselves, and the humans just go on dutifully slaughtering each other, battle after battle. It’s not all bad, though. Perry McGown makes his living off those bloody, stinking battlefields. He works on a crew that reclaims all the spent shell casings. But if anyone found out that he was a deserter from the war, he’d be executed for heresy.

Weird West, Fantasy, Diesel, and Steam!
A smuggler joins the cause against an insidious invasion into a fantasy Western world, where anything can happen, and frequently does. An action-packed blend of the West, technology, and magic, The Great Iron War delivers unique adventures.
R.C. Bray is great, which is widely known, and this Weird West world is the best use of his talents I've found.
I loved the Coilhunter Chronicles and have been waiting for the Great Iron War to be collected. Can't wait for the next Great Iron War collection and the continuation of Coilhunter.

A Liberal wet dream
it's weird listening to a book and knowing exactly where the authors politics lay. having made it to the end it's scary how the resistance replaces the regime yet for the average citizens things are worse. if anything the resistance uses violence for power more so than the regime. towards the end of the book ramen uses his gun to settle disputes more often than actual logic. which makes sense considering the author's political view defaults the violence to get their way instead of logic and reasoning.

Grounded Steampunk Warfare
*This book was given to me for free at my request and I provided this voluntary review. All thoughts below are fully my own.*
As the book begins we meet the major character of our story Jacob the smuggler. We've seen this before a, fateful encounter with the Resistance group who apposes the "devil" race in human form The Regime. But unlike those other stories, this isn't an easy world and that doesn't make for easy going people. There's history of loss and pain that is palpable from early on. There's grit here and it won't be an easy journey for Jacob or the rest of the resistance members.
I really enjoyed my time with the full cast in these first 3 books (first half of the series).
Too many times an author creates a character that can easily conquer the challenges in his way. Jacob isn't that at all, he isn't a master gunslinger or exceptionally strong. More then once he wrestles a devil and as they are naturally stronger then a normal human he comes out beaten and bruised. He has his vice and we see that as a driving force early on. We also see the change in him by the end of the 3rd book.
Whistler, General Rommond, and Taberah are all very themselves very different and distinct. We don't always always see the story from Jacobs POV and that was a good decision as other characters become more fleshed out and realized. We see the turmoil they don't easily show to others. Rammond for example when we first meet him is a model military man, demands his soldiers to be dressed and fit when on duty at all times. He could just be the hard ass commander but not here, why he's reserved when it comes to offensive operations against the Regime compared to Taberah makes sense during the later parts of the story.
On the point of pacing and story development. Each part of the story is named and headlined by a set piece of machinery. Each book has a dramatic climax but still have different goals in mind. Book 2 is where a large focus is on the characters and their pasts, some might think this as too much downtime and unexciting. I felt it was worth it overall as not fleshing out your characters could easily hurt it when the dramatic bits arrive.
The series is only half way done and there feels like there's so much more to explore and accomplish. I'm excited to see the rest.
CJ Bray does an fantastic job here, really brought the world and characters to life.
I will be exploring Dean F. Wilson's other books like his Coil Hunter Chronicle series.

Enjoyable Steam/Dieselpunk Adventure
Somehow Hopebreaker had came across my recommended list on Audble several weeks ago. It sounded interesting, the cover art looked good, and everyone loves RC Bray. I added it to my wishlist, but a few weeks later I managed to get a review promo code for the omnibus of the first three books and decided to check them out.
I haven't really read anything in a steam/dieselpunk setting before, so I can't really compare, but I am familiar with this type of dystopian setting. The blend was very well done, and the -punk setting was very well described. I felt like I could taste the grime and exhaust that must permeate the world. I thought the writing improved as the story went on. In Hopebreaker, the characters felt a little one dimensional, but as they got fleshed out in the latter books, I felt like it was done that way for a reason, and I ended up liking the character writing. I expected Lifemaker to be boring giving how it was set on a giant submarine, but realized the first parts of it were being used to flesh out characters more, and the story gets going in the latter part it got better. Skyshaker felt like a blend of the two. A nice mix of action scenes and character development. the characters are based on some clear archetypes, but the are unique enough for the major ones to be memorable. The worldbuilding was just enough to keep me informed and interested for me. but not enough to feel like I was being overloaded with useless facts and figures.
Overall, I was pleasantly surprised with how these books turned out. I think it woudl make a good introduction to steampunk and dieselpunk settings, and I would recommend them to anyone who likes that, or likes dystopian resistance stories. I will definately continue the series.

Iron War
I took a wild chance on this and enjoyed it quite a bit. It reminds me of Star Wars meets Steven King’s Gunslinger or Final Fantasy 6. It was a lot of fun! I’d recommend this to anyone who enjoys steampunk. R C Bray is brilliant as always.
A side note!!! Pay attention to the introduction. A lot of interesting and relevant backstory is there.

RC makes the story listenable
For everyone that writes that they could listen to RC Bray read the phone book, this poorly paced and designed story and storytelling will prove it. I sat through the whole thing waiting for the writing to get better but it did not. I would say that the structure is formulaic but it was the herky-jerky nature of pace of the storytelling; not the narration. Huge actions would zip by in two or three sentences and I’d have to backup and listen to a few sentences again because what happened next didn’t make any sense. Then we slow to an intricate accounting of each persons meaningless-to-the-plot feelings and thoughts… Glad this one is over.

A Down and Dirty Steampunk Series - Lots of Fun
You ever want to dive head first into a steampunk dystopia rife with conflict, badass technology, and characters you love to hate? Well then this series would be GREAT for you! Wilson has built an awesome, deep world here and despite some very personal hangups with story elements, this was a great (first part!) of a series to satisfy my craving for something fantastical and fun. Bray is a fantastic narrator, and brings so much life to Wilson's characters. Highly recommended for anyone that needs to kill like 18 hours and enjoys steampunk!

I found it hard to really cheer for many of the good guys. some people will enjoy the flawed characters, but I found them hard to root for. some of the twist were fairly obvious. it's worth a listen, but unlikely to be a personal favorite.

Lots of fun with great action and clever writing.
My first venture into the steampunk genre, and what a pleasant surprise. I requested, and was provided a no strings attached, complementary copy of this audiobook by the author.
All three books are great. R.C. Bray's performance is an absolute treat. The characters are well-developed and come to life with Bray's interpretation. Some of the characterizations are so well done (especially the pirate) that I laughed out loud at the antics. I'm smiling right now as I recollect one scene in particular, as only R.C. Bray could bring to life.
All three stories hold together and move forward at an enjoyable pace. I particularly enjoyed the plethora of metaphors, some very colorful--all original. That's not to say there are no plot holes, but they are minor and don't distract from the entertaining story.
Although there are scenes of death and destruction (some not for the faint of heart), the story has a positive undertone, with characters that work through issues for a common cause. The characters are all flawed but likable, making it easy to root for them.
Well worth the listen.
