Fifteen-year-old Phillip enjoys his cozy life in Central Florida. His chief activities are video gaming and avoiding his mother's assignments of responsibility. Then, a mysterious tailor gifts him a backpack with a key to his tailor shop in Norwall. The trouble is, Norwall is not to be found on this planet. Curious, he investigates and finds that the tailor harbors deep secrets. He comes from a dystopian Victorian steampunk city. Not only does a dictator rule the town with a bloodthirsty automaton army, but the people are enslaved in workhouse prisons and factories.
When a loved one accidentally falls through the Parallax, his choice is complicated. Does he stay and enjoy his comfortable life? Or does he go into a dangerous land on a Clockwork Adventure? Although the people may look to him to lead a rebellion, he knows that if he fails to live up to their expectations, he will never go home again.
This beautifully illustrated version of The Clockwork Adventures features concept art and character development profiles critical to this story. This novel began as a children's book, and you can learn how and why the storyline developed into a full-length adventure. Enjoy the story of how a few suggestions from the illustrator led to the collision of two storylines, spanning the Parallax Contingency from modern-day Florida to eighteenth-century Victorian Norwall. In Character Development, learn how subtle choices and personality profiles led to the creation of memorable characters. The added sections also discuss world-building techniques used, the character descriptions, and the collaborative efforts of the artist and author, to bring this series to life! See the artist's rendition of the characters throughout the years and follow her journey to create the visual images!
