YAAdventures of Arabella Ashby series.
In 1813, disguised as a boy, Arabella sails to Mars to save the family estate from a conniving relative. A shipboard mutiny and war between the colonists and native Martians complicate her task (and blow her cover). Steampunk mixes with a critique of colonialism as Levine simultaneously pays tribute to and updates the science fiction of Edgar Rice Burroughs and Jules Verne.
