“So vivid is the fictionalised past in The Periwinkle Perspective that it feels more real to me than the actual past, and a lot of the present.” — Paul B. Rainey, award-winning author of Why Don’t You Love Me
Gordon Periwinkle has retired. He runs a gentlemen’s club in Piccadilly now. He is very much not going back to space. He is absolutely going back to space.
London, 1898. A Martian delegation is en route to Buckingham Palace. Then a writer whose debut novel bombed — because Periwinkle made his fantastical subject matter mundane reality — suffers a breakdown and embarks on something considerably more dangerous than a bad review. And a discovery on Mars surfaces that nobody can be allowed to ignore.
Gordon joins Hamble Blaise for one more journey into the unknown, mostly because London is about to become considerably more dangerous than outer space.
“One of the most fun and imaginative titles of the year.” — Chris McAuley, creator of Stokerverse
The saga deepens. The laughs remain. The stakes keep rising.
