Publisher's Synopsis
A street urchin with a mysterious gift. A nightmarish enemy hunting over the gaslit streets of London. Dark Magic Rising. It's a cold winter's night when Jake Shillingsworth, serving boy at The Tattered Crow, finds himself running a task for his monstrous master Silas Grumble. Jake's errands are never fun, but this one is worse than most. This one's for a witch... When Jake's best friend is snatched by a terrifying creature he's forced to seek help from Professor Thistlequick; an eccentric man known as the clockwork magician. Soon Jake finds himself in strange shadowed streets and soaring over clouds in a race to stop the gravest of threats. London Bridge is falling down, and so will the entire city if Jake and his unlikely companions fail. The Clockwork Magician is what would happen if Sherlock Holmes met Doctor Who with a Dickensian cast of grotesques, nail biting adventures, and shadowy heroines who aren't what they seem. Buy The Clockwork Magician today and embark on this thrilling adventure today! Praise for Eldritch Black: Eldritch Black is a superior story teller! Every character is brought fully to life with very few words, and what a delightfully creepy cast of characters he's written Wonderful world building paired with a perfect tone of dark and spooky. (Reviewing on behalf of my 11 yr who read this book) I absolutely loved it! Just the right amount of scary. It kept me on the edge of my seat!
