She’s a teenage African aristocrat fighting to free slaves. He's a mathematical genius working as a messenger. Together, they will sink the most powerful warship ever built and discover that some equations can only be solved with poetry and guns.

Inspired by William Blake’s incendiary poetry and featuring action-packed scenes in the ‘dark Satanic Mills’ of the Industrial Revolution, the shining promise of a moonlit Crystal Palace, and on the high seas, this extended edition of Everything's Got Soul has double the romance and double the adventure of the original. This is a page-turner with poetry.

Both steampunk thriller and literary historical fiction: the book marries unique characters and a lively plot with a book of ideas. The novella asks several questions. One is whether beauty is a thing to possess or a truth to fight for. Another is, has everything got soul:

“Well, priests say only people have souls. Sometimes only white people get them. We believe everything’s got a soul.”
