After uniting some of the most famous heroines of the Victorian age including Jane Eyre, Miss Havisham and Marie Curie, Irene Adler must finally come face-to-face with Sherlock Holmes’s greatest nemesis, Moriarty!

World Fantasy Award winning writer Lavie Tidhar and TMNT artist Paul McCaffrey present an alternate history of the greatest literary characters of the 19th Century in the vein of Alan Moore and Kevin O’Neill’s The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen!

Lavie is also the author of the upcoming BY FORCE ALONE, a retelling of the Arthurian legend that has also been racking up some fantastic advance praise. The UK edition, published by Head of Zeus, was published last week. The North American edition is due to be published by Tor Books on June 16th.
