Predator's Gold by Philip ReeveRead about another entry on the list.
Reeve sets much of the action in this novel – the second of the Mortal Engines Quartet – on the city of Anchorage as it rumbles Westward across the ice towards North America. It's an eerie and half-abandoned traction-city ruled by Freya Rasmussen, an alluring young margravine intent on driving her citizens towards this promised land. There is, of course, trouble ahead. Anyone unfamiliar with Reeve's work (in which case, where've you been? Get to the back of the class!) should start with Mortal Engines, the book that precedes this one.
