Thank you for picking up this edition of the Brassbright Chronicle, delivered daily by one of our sooty-faced newsie urchins directly into your shrubbery or decorative fountain.
You are entering the alternate reality of the world of BrightHope. Most likely, you've landed on the continent of Industralia. Most people do, though there's an occasional touchdown on the String of Pearls chain of tropical islands. I wonder what stories they tell? Perhaps some day we'll find out. Meanwhile, Industralia is just bursting with clever eccentrics hoping you'll listen to them as they tell you all about their adventures.
Oh, and that noise you hear is the Victorian era groaning under the weight of anachronisms, puns, wacky humor, steampunky contrivances and contraptions, and ever-hopeful characters with lots to say.
Just published!
