From the master storyteller comes a tale of gothic mystery as elegantly crafted as the most intricate clockwork. A tormented apprentice clock-maker - and a deadly knight in armour. A mechanical prince - and the sinister Dr Kalmenius, who some say is the devil- ,compelling characters and superbly constructed narrative create a story that is funny, frightening, exciting, and clever. A gem.
