AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'The battle continues as the Filthies take over the juggernaut Worldshaker and rename it Liberator. A world of deception and betrayal ensues as the revolution turns radical. With Col now in the minority with his Swank friends, what will happen to his relationship with Riff, as they both face the reality of a world changing its shape forever?'

Notes

  • Sequel to Worldshaker.
  • Steampunk note: The pseudo-Victorianism of this world, its focus on class difference, advanced technologies and urban space place this story firmly within the steampunk style. The political focus of this book is also in tune with steampunk's traditional political terrain of revolution and class struggle.
