Until I began reading Sophronia Belle Lyon's Steam Puck novel, "A Dodge, a Twist and a Tobacconist," I had no idea that some of the movies I'd enjoyed were created in the Steam Puck tradition weaving Science Fiction and classic literature together seamlessly. I first saw this art form while watching the movie Dune. Now I've become enamored of this authors nuanced way of drawing us into a world that mirrors ours but is off center enough for both traditional bibliophiles and those who like alternative work at its juxtaposed best as seen in the final episode of Star Wars to become ardent fans.In this novel, we see Rose and the Campbell Clan, Oliver Twist, Mowgli and Baghee, and many others. Set in Victorian-era, reflecting the classics, Sophronia Lyon's choice of characters is flawless. Anyone reading this London "crime drama" will discover there is much more than the crime afoot in superb work. Once you begin this unique journey you'll discover the novel begging you to do nothing until you've completed this masterful work. All I can say is ENJOY!Always writing about choices and how God can help us change, Paula Rose Michelson wrote the Amazon Best Selling Christian self-help book "How Did We Become Angry?" That book and her three sweet Christian fictions with a Messianic twist and a hint of history: "Beginning Anew: The Naomi Chronicles" and "Casa de Naomi: The House of Blessing, Books One and Two", are available on Amazon.
