I have a review of Chris and Jen Sugden's novel High Vaultage out in the most recent issue of Strange Horizons , which can be found here . This book was a novelization of the audio fiction podcast Victoriocity , which both authors also wrote and (in the case of Chris Sugden) acted in. Set in an 1800s steampunk city known as "Even Greater London," the main story of High Vaultage follows an out-of-work police officer named Archibald Fleet, and an aspiring crime journalist named Clara Entwhistle. As the story begins, both of these characters have teamed up to found what they conceptualize as the world's first ever private detective agency, and have dedicated themselves to solving those mysteries which the authorities of Even Greater London have neglected to pursue.
