Clockwork Angels

Henderson, Samantha

Love and death walk hand in hand... Dr. Sebastian Robarts is a man paralyzed by the fate of his adored wife, dead in childbirth, their only child with her. He searches for a way to build angels from women, a pastime known to Scotland Yard as murder. Robarts meets the Vistani seer named Trueblood, who becomes his assistant and leads him to the Antebellum-era domain of Riverbend, controlled by the sadistic Dr. Weldon, to create angels, unfettered by conventional morality, or even rules. When the murderer returns to earth, it is the task of a Vistani policeman and a woman with a strange connection to Robarts to stop him. If he can be stopped. Heaven's Bones skillfully blends horror and steampunk and classic Victorian literary style into something exotic and fascinating.

The House of Forever: Selected Poems by Samantha Henderson is a collection of 21 time-bending poems, nine never before published--poems which fold, collapse, and conflate time, so that now becomes then, and then becomes now. From "Cabazon," where the prehistoric past meets the lonely present, to "After the Crash," which invokes the Brontë sisters in deep space, each poem is a tapestry of life sewn with the unraveling threads of time.
