Lady of Devices: A Steampunk Adventure Novel (Magnificent Devices)

London, 1889.

Victoria is Queen.

Charles Darwin’s son is Prime Minister.

And steam is the power that runs the world.

At 17, Claire Trevelyan, daughter of Viscount St.

Ives, was expected to do nothing more than pour an elegant cup of tea, sew a fine seam, and catch a rich husband.

Unfortunately, Claire’s talents lie not in the ballroom, but in the chemistry lab, where things have a regrettable habit of blowing up.
