A talking gnome and creatures from the deep... a new voice in fantasy emerges!
Albert Smith and his family live in Neo-Yuthea, divided into 'Even's and 'Odd's. All chugs along well without politics. However, one morning Mr Zand announces he is standing to be Mayor. Strange creatures cause shock deaths. Arranged marriages are forced to preserve 'peace'. The Smith's garden meetings will not be tolerated for much longer...Straight-laced and content with the comforts of his home on politically-neutral Neo-Yuthea, Albert Smith leads a quiet and unremarkable life. His days are filled with sipping tea with his beloved wife and tending to his cherished garden-a picture of tranquillity in an otherwise chaotic universe. Little does he know that destiny has extraordinary plans in store for him. When Mr. Zand, an agent of extra-terrestrial chaos, launches his mayoral campaign, the once peaceful colony faces uncertain and unsettling times. Striking deaths attributed to mysterious forest creatures, forced arranged marriages, and a looming threat of suppressing secret garden meetings propel the community toward the edge of turmoil. In the face of this encroaching darkness, Albert and his neighbours must band together to resist oppression and fight for their freedom before their world collapses.
"Harper’s prose is reminiscent of some of the finest writers this country has produced; he writes with a style classic in nature, and yet post-modern in both form and content. As a writer of primarily the new weird science fiction, Harper has found his home." Robert Welbourn, author of Belonging and Ideal Angels.
