The Return of the Discontinued Man: The Burton & Swinburne Adventures by Mark Hodder

Burton and Swinburne return in a new wildly imaginative steampunk adventure, and this time they're facing their greatest foe...

Leicester Square, London. Blood red snow falls from the sky and a strange creature, disorientated and apparently insane, materialises out of thin air. Spring Heeled Jack has returned, and he is intent on one thing: hunting Sir Richard Francis Burton.

Burton is experiencing one hallucination after another; visions of parallel realities and future history plague his every thought. These send him, and his companions, on an unimaginable expedition - a voyage through time itself...

The Return of the Discontinued Man Reviews

Exquisite prose, exceptional characters and worldbuilding, and a rollicking good adventure to boot ... A must read -- George Mann
Serious literary fun as Mark Hodder vaults to the front of the new steampunk writers pack. Elaborately researched and name-checked, THE SECRET OF ABDU EL YEZDI races Victorian explorer Sir Richard Burton through a diabolically baffling maze of historical possiblities -- plus there's corsets and airships. Hard to imagine any lover of alternate British empires not being thoroughly amazed and entertained * K.W. Jeter *
Great fun, thought-provoking, highly literate and beautifully written * Daily Mail *
