Science Fiction Alternate History
The thrilling adventures of Arabella Ashby continue in the
second book in Hugo-winning author David D. Levine's
swashbuckling sci-fi, alt-history series!
The swashbuckling Arabella Ashby is back for brand new
adventure in the ongoing story of her life among the
stars. Arabella’s wedding plans to marry Captain Singh of the
Honorable Mars Trading Company are interrupted when her
fiancé is captured by the French and sent to a prisoner-
of-war camp on swampy Venus. Now, Arabella must find
passage to an enemy-controlled planet in the middle of a
war, bribe or fight her way past vicious guards, and
rescue her Captain. To do this she must enlist the help of the dashing
privateer, Daniel Fox of the Touchstone and build her own
clockwork navigational automaton in order to get to Venus
before the dread French general, Joseph Fouché, the
Executioner of Lyon. Once on Venus, Arabella, Singh, and Fox soon discover that
Napoleon has designed a secret weapon, one that could
subjugate the entire galaxy if they can’t discover a way
to stop Fouché, and the entire French army, from
completing their emperor’s mandate.
