Description
WICKED TREASURE is the third installment of the Treasure Chronicles.
An asylum patient has a cryptic vision: Clark will overthrow the presidency. She’s just insane…right?
When a clockwork lion kidnaps their daughter, Clark and Amethyst’s calm new life shatters. Hunting down the beast leads the Grishams and Treasures to a conspiracy not just against Clark, but also against the country.
The conspirators attacked their little girl. An offense like that can’t go ignored. With his old gang at his back, Clark is ready to take on an abandoned circus, dethroned royalty, a corrupt orphanage, and the presidency itself.

Clark and Amethyst are just living their lives when a clockwork lion takes their daughter from them. They get a lead that takes them on an adventure neither was looking for. As they look for answers to why someone would take their daughter, they uncover a conspiracy that is about more than just their family … it concerns the country. What will Clark and Amethyst be required to survive in this tale?
Wicked Treasure is the third book in the Treasure Chronicles. Although it has been awhile since I read the first two books, the characters quickly pulled me into the story and I was easily swept away with this new journey. Mierek has reinvigorated this clockwork world and promises additional stories will come along. Wicked Treasure is a fun read, but would be best enjoyed in the proper sequence.
Karissa E, Reviewer
I got this book to review through NetGalley. This was a good continuation of the Treasure Chronicles. The writing is well done, easy to read, and makes for a book that is hard to put down. There are a lot more politics/conspiracy and less steampunk adventure than in the previous two books; so I didn't like it quite as much as the first two books. However, it was still an excellent read.
Time has past since the second book; Clark and Amethyst are well off and have a young daughter. I continue to enjoy Clark and Amethyst quite a bit, they are very fun characters to read about.
I was a bit disappointed that there aren’t a ton of steampunk elements in this book. We do get to venture through a clockwork circus which was neat. However, most of the story focused on a government conspiracy around the type of research and elixirs that gave Clark his special abilities.
Even though I don’t usually enjoy conspiracy novels with a lot of political content; Elizabeth’s writing flows beautifully and is very easy and engaging to read. I whipped right through this book and enjoyed it a lot.
Overall this was a good continuation of the Treasure Chronicles. I enjoyed the characters and the world. I was a bit disappointed on all the focus on conspiracy and the reduction of steampunky goodness. However this is still a very good read. I would recommend to those who enjoy historical fantasy with some adventure and paranormal elements.
