Secrets of the Dragon Tomb series.
Illustrated by
Jeremy Holmes.
In Lunae City on 1817 British Mars, Edward spots a thief leaving Lady Harleston's townhouse, throwing him and younger sister Putty into a twisty mystery. Best enjoyed in series order (The Secrets of the Dragon Tomb), this second adventure boasts a complex story arc, inventive clockwork mechanics, and intriguing alternate history of space colonization. Occasional full-page illustrations play up the steampunk.
