About the Author
Viola Carr is the author of the Electric Empire trilogy. She was born in Australia, but wandered into darkest London one foggy October evening and never found her way out. She now devours countless history books and dictates fantastical novels by gaslight, accompanied by classical music and the snoring of her slumbering cat.
Reviews
"In this third dazzlingly complex installment of the Electric Empire series, Carr expands her otherworldly historical setting impressively, and provides her two heroines with a marvelous opportunity to grow...this book pushes the bounds of reality without losing its interest or credibility. Indeed, these daring twists make the book a success. Best of all, Carr honors the spirit of both her heroines in this story, providing plenty of insight along with the action." -- RT Book Reviews "Carr's knack for atmospheric storytelling and fast pacing keeps things rocketing along toward an explosive, bloody resolution, and the dueling voices of Eliza and Lizzie give the tale a unique set of perspectives." -- Publishers Weekly "Viola Carr has surpassed her earlier efforts. As in previous entries, Carr blends mystery, steampunk, science fiction, and all the literary references you might wish into one fantastic adventure... a fitting end to the trilogy" -- Culturess.com Viola Car has written another dastardly good read... filled with compelling conflict, including Eliza's ambivalence towards the cure she takes to suppress Lizzie, an ambivalence beautifully rendered in the author's rich language. -- Heroes and Heartbreakers.com Heroes and Heartbreakers.com
