1907: An environment of steam and metallic, of brass and bravery. Spaceships ply the lanes above the Earth, working on coke furnaces and a prayer, as the atomic-powered Circumferential Rail runs the way between Paris, France, and Houston, Tx. Where there is cargo, and people of means, pirates soon follow, and this is how Jonathan Orbital, heir to the Circumferential Rail sees himself embroiled in a conspiracy adjoining a kidnapped French girl with a valuable technique. Enter the roguish space pirate Phinneas Greaves, who kidnaps the beautiful and intelligent Cecilie Renault from the Circumferential Rail in order to provide her father's research to the highest bidder. The smitten Jonathan will stop at nothing at all to rescue her, but both men soon learn the global implications of the girl knowledge, and they're forced to wage harrowing battles across the Big Black of space and the dusty scenery of the American West, with the only real certainty being that those who want to exploit this revolutionary technology will stop at nothing to acquire it. The Oilman's Little girl is a rollicking steampunk collaboration representing the best of creators Ian Thomas Healy (Just Cause Universe) and Allison M. Dickson (Strings, Colt Coltrane).
