Inspired by two of the most beloved works by literary masters, All Men of Geniustakes place in an alternate Steampunk Victorian London, where science makes the impossible possible.
Violet Adams wants to attend Illyria College, a widely renowned school for the most brilliant up-and-coming scientific minds, founded by the late Duke Illyria, the greatest scientist of the Victorian Age. The school is run by his son, Ernest, who has held to his fathers policy that the small, exclusive college remain male-only. Violet sees her opportunity when her father departs for America. She disguises herself as her twin brother, Ashton, and gains entry.
But keeping the secret of her sex wont be easy, not with her friend Jacks constant habit of pulling pranks, and especially not when the dukes young ward, Cecily, starts to develop feelings for Violets alter ego, Ashton. Not to mention blackmail, mysterious killer automata, and the way Violets pulse quickens whenever the young duke, Ernest (who has a secret past of his own), speaks to her. She soon realizes that its not just keeping her secret until the end of the year faire she has to worry about: its surviving that long.
