Our Wodehouse Prize Shortlisted comic Neo-Victorian detective novel is available for under £9 on Am*zon if you’ve been holding out for a bargain! Better value than TWO SLICES OF CAKE from Mrs Pomligan’s!

HIGH VAULTAGE by @chrssgdn & @JenSugden
‘Dusk was falling over Even Greater London, and the night wind stirred under the purple pools of crackling sky where lightning skipped like stones…’
And thus begins ‘High Vaultage’, a riotously entertaining novel born out of the authors’ acclaimed drama podcast @Victoriocity
Even Greater London in 1887 is a place of mystery, adventure, absurdity, off-the-chart technology, a cyber-Queen Victoria, and an über-powerful corps of engineers, established by Isambard Kingdom Brunel. Into this dazzling mix, protagonists Archibald Fleet and Clara Entwhistle are thrust, up to their necks in danger and intrigue.
Comparisons with Douglas Adams and Terry Pratchett are well deserved. Always witty, always compelling, in creating its own version of 1887 ‘High Vaultage’ has much to say about the absurdities of our world in 2025.
I will be chatting to Chris and Jen about ‘High Vaultage’ for @LindumBooks this Thursday. Do join us 😊

The news is out, @Richard_S_Swan has a science fiction series coming! Delighted that @gollancz and @torbooks will be publishing THE INFINITE STATE, a quite brilliant space opera from the Sunday Times Bestselling author of THE JUSTICE OF KINGS. thebookseller.com/rights/gol…
“It’s Wildly inventive and revels in the absurd: think Dickens meets Douglas Adams with a dash of PG Wodehouse. The ideal panacea for a cold, grey, your-tax-return-is-due January”
Thanks @BookBrunch💛Our January just got a bit less grey! bookbrunch.co.uk/page/free-a…
It’s my birthday and I’ve been really under the weather! But if you want to cheer me up and give me the best gift ever - and you’ve read mine and Chris’ debut novel
- then please consider rating and reviewing on whatever platform you can! 🎈

Who wants to help this queer, tender romance get there?
