Metal Emissary (Hanover and Singh, #1) by Chris Paton

Metal Emissary is a fantastic book that I couldn't put down. It is a steampunk adventure set in Afghanistan. The characters are well thought out, the setting feels very real, and Chris Paton is a thorough writer who is clearly having fun living in this world he has created, which comes through for the reader as well.
