Infernal Devices
Infernal Devices: A Mad Victorian Fantasy.
It all began when the Brown Leather Man, a mysterious being with a secret older than humankind, asked proper Victorian London gentleman George Dower to repair a weird device. How could George have known that this was but one of the many infernal devices his genius father had built, and that he himself would soon be pursued by former clients of his father?
For
George had always been the unsuspecting key to his father's incredible
plans, a key that others would like to possess - from the automaton who
wore George's own face to the mad Lord Bendray, bent on using George to
destroy the entire Earth.
A romp through Victorian England by an author said to have "the brain-burned intensity of his mentor, Philip K. Dick."
