This book reminds me of all of the best elements of old school science fiction, combined with modern sensibilities. Andrew Mayne has created a really interesting and compelling character with Mr. Smith. The simplest way to describe this book is that it's a steampunk Dr. Who, but there's a lot more going on under the surface. This is a great book for anyone who's a fan of Dr. Who, period sci-fi, or historical fiction. Plus how many other books are you going to read that have Teddy Roosevelt carrying an elephant gun, Harry Houdini escaping death defying situations and UFOs flying over New York City. Great read at a great price.
