Martians are walking the streets of London. Gordon Periwinkle is on Mars. History is going wrong on two planets simultaneously.

England, 1898. The Kaiser is dead and Berlin wants answers. Back in London, the Martian refugees Queen Victoria invited in exchange for their technology are peaceable, brilliant, and deeply unwilling to fight — which makes them useless to an Empire that badly needs allies right now.

And somewhere on Mars, a scientist exists who may hold the secret to unravelling time itself and setting both worlds back on course. If she exists at all.

Volume Three is where the Periwinkle saga opens up into something genuinely epic. The comedy is still there. So is the consequence. Eccentric is doing something rare here — building a world that keeps getting bigger without losing the characters at its centre.

Two planets. One disaster. Gordon Periwinkle somehow in the middle of both.
