About this item
by Andrea H. Rome (Author)
An epic gaslamp fantasy with a MacGuyver-esque heroine. Emaline Strider fixes everything that breaks in her small village of Brookerby. When the Warding Tree of Protection crashes to the ground and cripples the town, Em is up for the challenge of finding a solution. As she travels south to the glamourous capital city, she finds magic all around her. A shape-shifting book guides her. A never-empty flask sustains her. An improbable relationship blossoms. But can Em trust magic when her hammer and pliers are infinitely more reliable? When the empress threatens her life and friends double-cross her, magic seems downright dangerous. Suddenly, a simple repair has become a race against the empire to save the only home she has ever known.
Light a fire in the fireplace, brew your favorite cup of tea, and settle in with this cozy fantasy adventure.
