Science Fiction
In the mid-1870s,
a violent spray of comets hits Earth, decimating cities,
erasing
shorelines, and changing the world’s climate forever. And
just as
Earth’s temperature dropped, so was civilization frozen in
time.
Instead of advancing technologically, humanity had to piece
itself back
together…
In the twenty-first century,
boats still run on steam, messages arrive by telegraph, and
the British
Empire, with its capital now in Delhi, controls much of the
world. The
other major world leader is the Czar of All the Russias.
Everyone
predicts an eventual, deadly showdown. But no one can
predict the role
that one man, Captain Athelstane King, reluctant spy and
hero, will
play…
