Set in a pseudo-Victorian parallel world, a 'brilliant steam punk fantasy that will hook you from the very first page, set aboard a huge ship in which the elites live on the top decks while the Filthies toil below. Strong writing, a vivid alternative world and characters you'll never forget. (Libraries Australia record)
