Homunculus
Homonculus is a fascinating trip to a London that never existed... but perhaps should have.
Darkly atmospheric, Homonculus weaves together the stories of Narbondo - a mad hunchback who works tirelessly to bring the dead back to life, of the members of the Trismegistus Club - a surly group of scientists and philosophers who meet at Captain Powers' Pipe Shop, and of the homonculus - a tiny man whose powers can drive men to murder.
