Ether hardback

by Kristine Williams

The day Daniel Harper inherited his uncle's old farm, he also inherited a strange key. When he used that key on the cellar door, he found himself not on the rotting wooden steps, but in the path of an oncoming car on a dark city street. He's just stepped into Ether, a world of steam powered cars and wooden ships that sail the skies. The key to going home is the key that brought him there, but he's left it in the cellar door. Now his best chance of finding the way back is to go along with Ether's most wanted criminal and former bodyguard to the murdered King in the hopes of finding another key.

About the author

Kristine was educated in Veterinary medicine, then spent 10 years in that field until one day, with her arm up a cow's ass, it dawned on her - in the way that astonishing things dawn, with bright flashes of light, a sweeping theme and credits for a Key Grip and Gaffer - that people really did get paid to do other things.

Now she writes, cuts rocks for pleasure, and spends maybe just a little too much time playing video games she justifies as novel "research".
