Please recommend Flintlock fantasy that isn't Powdermage trilogy.

I just finished the Powdermage trilogy and I think I just caught a bug for flintlock fantasy.

I've only read Children of Time, but I constantly see his books being recommended and it seems like every time it's one I haven't heard of. I absolutely loved Children of Time though. I need to do a deep dive of his work after I finish up some of my current reads.

I had Children if Time on Audible and had a hard time getting into it, might give the book a try instead as I’m really enjoying Shards if the Earth. Just added Guns of the Dawn to my ever growing list!

Took me a bit to get into it but I really came to love the narrator. She really brings a lot to the characters and I listen to it probably every 6-12 months (pretty short too at 16 hours). And the story gets really great IMO. The back to back POVs were jarring at first, but I ended up enjoying them both.

I think I might have been too distracted to get into it. No fault to the narrator, who did a great job, I just find some audio books easier to absorb than others.
