Приключения знаменитых сыщиков Бертона и Суинберна продолжаются! Новый роман Марка Ходдера! Впервые на русском языке! Лондон, 1862 год. Наследник огромного богатства лорд Рожер Тичборн утонул во время кораблекрушения парохода "Белла" в Атлантическом океане в 1854 году. Но австралийский эмигрант Артур Ортон, простой мясник, спустя 8 лет присвоил себе его имя. Он явился к родным покойного и предъявил наследникам иск на титул и фамильное состояние. Рабочие Лондона встали на его защиту. В Лондоне началось восстание, разжигаемое загадочными призраками. "Роман о Заводном человеке — умное фэнтези. И этой книгой Ходдер окончательно доказал, что застолбил себе место на карте жанра… Историю Тичборна, Распутина и Блаватской Ходдер подает как опытный профессионал: она нетривиальная, волнующая, напряженная и полная сюрпризов…"

A former BBC writer, editor, journalist, and web producer, Mark left London, England, for Valencia, Spain, to de-stress and write novels.

Burton and Swinburne return in a new wildly imaginative steampunk adventure, and this time they're facing their greatest foe... Leicester Square, London. Blood red snow falls from the sky and a strange creature, disorientated and apparently insane, materialises out of thin air. Spring Heeled Jack has returned, and he is intent on one thing: hunting Sir Richard Francis Burton. Burton is experiencing one hallucination after another; visions of parallel realities and future history plague his every thought. These send him, and his companions, on an unimaginable expedition - a voyage through time itself...

Sir Richard Francis Burton’s expedition has returned from the future, bringing with it knowledge of technologies that must remain secret if history is to proceed as it should. However, when one of his colleagues turns rogue, the secret falls into the hands of the very people most likely to misuse it.

Betrayed, Burton and Swinburne watch in horror as the Empire’s elite employ the technology to secure their positions of privilege. When London's parks are transformed into concentration camps, artists and philosophers are declared enemies of the State, and propaganda proliferates, the king’s agent finds himself on the wrong side of—the king!

Can Burton and his band of hunted revolutionaries overthrow an apparently indestructible and immortal autocrat ... and if so, at what personal cost?

The Spring Heeled Jack saga reaches its explosive conclusion!

An original psychological adventure from the the author of the Philip K. Dick award-winning Burton & Swinburne series.

A tale of Good and Evil, where neither is what it seems!

Aiden Fleischer, a bookish priest, finds himself transported to an alien world. With him is Miss Clarissa Stark, a crippled hunchback of exceptional ability, wronged by an aristocrat and cast out from society.

On the planet Ptallaya, under two bright yellow suns, they encounter the Yatsill, a race of enthusiastic mimics who shape their society after impressions picked up from Clarissa's mind. Creating a faux London, the alien creatures enroll Clarissa in their Council of Magicians and Aiden in the City Guard. But why does the peaceful city require guards? After a day that, in earthly terms, has lasted for months, the answer comes, for on this planet without night, a red sun also rises, and brings with it a destructive evil.

The Blood Gods! Hideous creatures, they cause Aiden to confront his own internal darkness while trying to protect his friend and his new home.

With a sharp eye for period detail and a rich imagination, Mark Hodder establishes a weirdly twisted version of Victorian London on a convincingly realized alien world, and employs them to tackle a profound psychological and moral question. This book breaks new ground by combining the "Sword & Planet" genre with Victorian steampunk while adding an edgy psychological twist.
