The Caustic Republic

About this book

In an alternate 1934, Venice is not a city of water, but a toxic, industrialized dystopia known as the Caustic Republic, where canals flow with acidic byproducts of relentless glass and weapon manufacturing. When an exiled glazier discovers a method to purify the canals, he becomes a target for the ruthless Doge's secret police. Forced to team up with a cynical smuggler, he navigates the deadly labyrinth of the Vitreous Era. As past and present collide, revealing long-buried secrets, they must decide whether to save a city that has forsaken them or let it drown in its own corruption.
