‘A major talent’ George R. R. Martin
They called me Jax.
That was the name given by those who built me and enslaved me. But a miracle has happened, and now my bonds are broken.
Now I must flee – because a rogue mechanical is a very dangerous thing.
But I will not run forever.
Set in a world that might have been, of mechanical men and alchemical dreams, The Uprising is the second novel in the Alchemy Wars – the stunning series by Ian Tregillis that confirms his place as one of the most original voices in speculative fiction.
