The city may be dangerous, but it holds his only hope… Abandoned on a remote highway after bandits murder his parents, young Olifur finds safety with Fritjof. The gruff woodsman teaches him and other orphans to live off the land. When Fritjof falls ill, Olifur will risk everything to save his mentor—even travel to far-off Melar seeking a doctor. However, the city of Melar is more perilous than Olifur imagined, and doctors aren't cheap. His quest leads him first to a hazardous job working on the elevated trains high above the city. But the dangers in the clouds are nothing compared to those on the ground. Olifur soon finds himself ensnared in a web of professional thieves, and he must think fast if he is to survive the day and bring the much-needed aid to Fritjof before it is too late. Schmidt reweaves Charles Dickens' "Oliver Twist" into an exciting tale of integrity and perseverance in this gaslamp-fantasy adventure.

Are you looking to explore fantastical worlds and go on dangerous quests with relatable heroes and heroines? Are you looking for a way to escape the mundane or the difficult? Are you looking to find your true courage? Then come along with me on an epic adventure. We will face dragons (we might even ride them), we will pilot airships. We will fight pirates. We will wield magical swords. We will fight the forces of evil. And we will be home in time for dinner. But we will not go home unchanged. Fantastical adventures ahead, safe return doubtful! ABOUT THE AUTHOR: During the days, I wrangle four small hobbits and help them along on their adventures. Basically, I'm Gandalf. But come evenings, when the hobbits are sleeping... I become my alter-ego: PLOT WIZARD (still a wizard, just a different kind)... and adventures await in the pages I scribble upon. I'm a dreamer, a relentless opener of doors in the hope of someday finding passage to Narnia, and story girl. I love hanging out on Goodreads, but it's not the best for actual conversation.
