A remarkable collaboration that is unprecedented in its scope and realization, this exquisitely wrought novel represents an artistic project between the bestselling science fiction author Kevin J. Anderson and the multiplatinum rock band Rush. The newest album by Rush, Clockwork Angels, sets forth a story in Neil Peart’s lyrics that has been expanded by him and Anderson into this epic novel. In a young man’s quest to follow his dreams, he is caught between the grandiose forces of order and chaos. He travels across a lavish and colorful world of steampunk and alchemy with lost cities, pirates, anarchists, exotic carnivals, and a rigid Watchmaker who imposes precision on every aspect of daily life.

Reviews for Clockwork Angels: The Novel

"""...the ideology of a well-structured society that allows very little personal choice and the concept of complete freedom for the individual to do as they choose with no governing intervention are pitted against each other. This underlying theme provided much depth to the story and made it far more interesting than the simple story presented on the surface."" -- The World According to Mr. Flying Pig ""Dazzling locales, memorable characters and high adventure that will make you think long after you're done. What more can you ask from a book?"" -- Sci Fi Pulse ""While reading this book the songs of the album played out in my head. Now while listening to the songs, the chapters of the book play out in my head."" -- The Lofty Oaks ""If you are no fan of genre works, I would still very highly recommend Clockwork Angels. It stands on its own merits as a grand adventure tale woven with threads of various themes enough to keep it fresh, exciting and engaging. Ultimately, Clockwork Angels is one of the most human of stories."" -- Book Reporter ""Stunning steampunk adventure ... filled with ruthless pirates, old-fashioned airships and strange lands."" -- Sci Fi Magazine"
