Expedition to the Mountains of the Moon (Burton & Swinburne #3)
Author: Mark Hodder
Desc: It is 1863 but not the one it should be. Time has veered wildly off course and now the first moves are being made that will lead to a devastating world war and the fall of the British Empire. Caught in a tangled web of cause effect and inevitability little does Burton realize that the stakes are far higher than even he suspects. A final confrontation comes in the mist-shrouded Mountains of the Moon in war- torn Africa of 1914 and in Green Park London where in the year 1840 Burton must face the man responsible for altering time: Spring Heeled Jack! Burton and Swinburne's third adventure is filled with eccentric steam-driven technology grotesque characters and bizarre events completing the three-volume story arc begun in The Strange Affair of Spring Heeled Jack and The Curious Case of the Clockwork Man.
