Dalla quarta di copertina:

DO UNTO OTHERS BEFORE THEY DO UNTO YOU ... WITH A TIME MACHINE

What is so special about Lord Kelvin’s machine? The diabolical Dr Ignacio Narbondo would kill to possess it. The accomplished scientist and detective Langdon St. Ives would do anything to use it. For within its magical gears lies the secret of time ... the means for Dr Narbondo to master the world ... and the method by which St. Ives can avert the doom of his beloved wife. A devilish race against time, indeed. Especially when arch rivals of the present meet their future in the past!

Set in a Victorian London that never quite existed, 'Lord Kelvin’s Machine' is the new novel from the award winning author of 'Homunculous' and 'The Paper Grail'.

“Refreshing natural lunacy. Blaylock is a true American original”

“Blaylock is better than anyone else at showing us the magic that secretly animates our world.”
TIM POWERS, author of 'Anubis Gates'

“Nerve wrenching, deeply moving, and sparked with comic touches ... brilliantly achieved.”
