Join us to celebrate the paperback publication of The Cautious Traveller's Guide to the Wastelands and High Vaultage - an evening of high Victorian fantasy, science-fiction and steampunk!The Cautious Traveller's Guide takes us to the end of the 19th Century when the world is awash with marvels. But there is nothing so marvellous as the Wastelands: a terrain of terrible miracles that lies between Beijing and Moscow. Nothing touches this abandoned wilderness except the Great Trans-Siberian Express, an impenetrable train built to carry cargo across continents but which now transports anyone who dares to cross the shadowy Wastelands.
Author Sarah Brooks won the Lucy Cavendish Prize in 2019. She is also co-editor of Samovar, a bilingual online magazine for translated speculative fiction.
High Vaultage is a cosy scifi mystery set in the chaotic metropolis of Even Greater London in 1887, a vast, uninterrupted urban plane encompassing the entire lower half of England and, for complex reasons, only the upper third of the Isle of Wight...
Authors Chris and Jen Sugden are the creators of the acclaimed audio drama podcast Victoriocity.
