Weathernose (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781733362009)

How far would you go to keep the world from changing?

In the Cerulean Universe, the world is only just awakening to scientific discovery and invention. And Tart Morning hates change.

Thanks to a ground-breaking invention called "the weathernose" - a machine that calculates weather predictions, Tart's career as a weatherman is on the line.

In this wacky steampunk adventure Tart's only choice is to destroy the weathernose, but the machine's smug ten-year-old inventress, Cypress Korkul, is far too clever for him. Also, she has no sense of humor.

In his scrambling efforts to keep up with the times, Tart finds himself willing to go to ever more dastardly lengths to stop the weathernose.

How far is he willing to go to get his job and his old life back?

What will he find out about Cypress - and himself - along the way?

For readers who enjoy authors like Terry Pratchett and Lemony Snicket.
