DESCRIPTION
the gripping second book in the Alchemy Wars series, where a clockwork being fights for their freedom against a tyrannical society 'A major talent' George R. R. Martin
Following The Mechanical comes the second novel in this thrilling and heart-breaking new series about one individual's struggle for freedom - perfect for fans of Paolo Bacigalupi, Ann Leckie and Neal Stephenson
They called me Jax.
That was the name given by those who built me and enslaved me. But a miracle has happened, and now my bonds are broken.
Now I must flee - because a rogue mechanical is a very dangerous thing.
But I will not run forever.
Set in a world that might have been, of mechanical men and alchemical dreams, The Uprising is the second novel in the Alchemy Wars - the stunning series by Ian Tregillis that confirms his place as one of the most original voices in speculative fiction.
