Overview

In this steampunk sequel to The Impossible Cube, two adventurers must find a way inside a kingdom on the brink of war to save themselves and the world. As Gavin Ennock pilots his airship, the Lady of Liberty, to China, his fiancee, Lady Alice Michaels prays they make it in time. The Clockwork Plague consumes Gavin's body and mind, driving him increasingly mad--and driving a wedge between him and Alice. Their only hope lies in China with the Dragon Men. But a power-hungry general has seized the Chinese throne, intending to conquer Asia, Britain, and the world. He has also closed the country's borders to foreigners. Meanwhile, the former ruling dynasty is plotting to return the throne's rightful heir to power. Seeing their opportunity, the two travelers dive into a political power struggle where one false move could spell doom for Gavin and the entire world. ""[The Dragon Men] continues to demonstrate its original premise and to showcase the inventive pair who strive to save a world."" --Library Journal

Mr. Harper teaches high school English in southeast Michigan. His students think he's hysterical, which isn't the same as thinking he's hilarious. When not writing, he plays the folk harp, dabbles in oral storytelling, and spends more time online than is probably good for him.
