Clockwork Alchemist (The Thief's Apprentice Book 1)
A thief, a wayward detective, and an automaton with a soul. What could possibly go wrong?
Arhyen is the self-declared finest thief in London. The mission was simple. Steal a journal from Fairfax Breckinridge, one of the greatest alchemists of the time. Arhyen hadn’t expected to find Fairfax himself, with a dagger in his back. Nor had he expected his automaton daughter, Liliana. Suddenly entrenched in a mystery too great for him to fully comprehend, he must rely on the help of a wayward detective, and an automaton who claims she has a soul, to piece together the clues laid before them. Will Arhyen uncover the true source of Liliana’s soul in time, or will London plunge into a dark age of nefarious technology, where only the scientific will survive?
This novel is classified as Gaslamp Fantasy, with elements of magic within alchemy and science, based in Victorian England.
