Can she write a world gone wrong?
A certain pen, a certain book, and a certain person can craft entirely new worlds through a branch of science called scriptology. Elsa comes from one such world that was written into creation by her mother—a noted scriptologist.
But when her home is attacked and her mother abducted, Elsa must cross into the real world and use her own scriptology gifts to find her. In an alternative 19th-century Italy, Elsa finds a secret society of pazzerellones—young people with a gift for mechanics, alchemy or scriptology—and meets Leo, a gorgeous mechanist with a smart mouth and a tragic past. She recruits the help of these fellow geniuses just as an assassin arrives on their doorstep.
In this thrilling debut, worlds collide as Elsa unveils a deep political conspiracy seeking to unlock the most dangerous weapon ever created—and only she can stop it.

Thoughts:
Ooooooh. This sounds good. Crafting worlds, alchemy, scriptology, assassins---sounds like it could be epic....and the possibility of romance? I'm in; keen to see if this is as good as it sounds. Always keeping my eye out for new and exciting fantasy. Oh, and I do very much like the title; Ink, Iron and Glass--love it!
What do you think of Ink, Iron and Glass? Does it sound like something you would read?
