I've only gotten round to reading the first one, which I read back when the paper back was released, and it was pretty good. I'm not sure how similar to The Way I can call it though, as it was rather unique and had its own distinct 'feel.' Now that they're available as e-books, I'd definitely recommend giving at least the first book a read and see what you make of it. I personally loved it, but I'd say it was distinct and separate from the world of The Way.
It did, however, have the same Wheel-of-Time-esque Medieval/steam-punk setting that The Way did. The one obviously noticeable difference, however, is that civilisation is much more prominent in fwacho's stuff, whereas in The Way, settlements were not too common, and thus had a more 'lonely feel,' if you get what I mean. However, that is just the first book. Not sure if this is true for the other two.
In this day and age, an era where there are people who actually throw shit at each other, anything, could be possible.
