Time in Danny’s world is regulated by the great clocks – if
a clock stops, that area becomes Stopped.
Danny’s father has been stuck with in a Stopped city for three
years. Danny is carrying on the family
business, maintaining clocks, but the Colton clock is causing him
problems. And something weird about that
clock. Danny is about to find out about
the origins of the clocks and of time, and become intimately involved in
finding the key to saving all Stopped clocks.
I don’t feel I did a very good job explaining this
book. It is better than my poor
summary. This is a fun steampunk,
alternate Victorian world fantasy. While
the main character is gay, it is not to hit anyone over the head with issues,
the book ti just romantic in that relationship.
I don’t find that steampunk books circulate very well at my school,
though, so that is the drawback that I see.
