When time starts unraveling, this unlikely crew has fourteen days to race across a clockwork galaxy and set the universe right. Buoyant, punny, and unashamedly charming - for readers who still believe a good adventure can make them smile.
Across the galax-seas, a clockmaker's quest and a pirate's cunning are all that stand between chaos and order.Time isn't just running out-it's falling apart.
In the mechanical marvel of Gearturn, young clockmaker Millicent Gearwright has always found comfort in the precision of her creations, like her robot companion Quark. But when days begin bleeding into nights, seasons clash in impossible ways, and historical events replay in chaos, she realizes the universe's chronological gears have come undone.
Armed with nothing but her wit and a mysterious pocket orrery, Millicent must embark on a daring mission across the Clockwork Constellation to find and repair the cosmic Time Core. She's joined by an unlikely crew: Orin, a master poet whose verses can bend reality; and Barnaby Blackwater, a notorious time-stealing space pirate with secrets of his own.
As temporal distortions worsen and the fabric of reality unravels thread by thread, Millicent and her team race through a universe where nothing is quite what it seems. From the grind of Gearturn to the furthest reaches of the Clockwork Constellation, each tock of the cosmic clock brings them closer to either salvation or universal chaos.
In this thrilling blend of science fiction, fantasy, action, and adventure, author Paul Michael Peters crafts a tale where the laws of time are breakable, trust is a precious currency, and the difference between hero and villain depends on which timeline you're in.
The clock is clicking down. The universe is counting every second.
And time hangs in the balance.Also from
