I came across this series of books a few months back, first published in 2016, and was wondering if anyone might be familiar. Other than the cover, no illustrations.

A friend thought she'd seen a movie of it, but other than an animagraphic promoting the book, nada on searching for that.  Visually, story, & characters would work well in that medium too, I'd think.

Jules Vernian Steampunk to say the least.

I might take a stab at making something like this, but sure would be nice to see something like this in the store.
