The way he tells the story, these weapons might well give anything in today's 21st century arsenals a run for the money. But as incredible as these early superweapons appear, Brothers of the Gun is no mere ...

It takes place at the turn of the 20th century, but history has gone berserk and the era is not the prewar world as we know it. Instead it is a strange, dark, post-Orwellian world in which an almost 21st century technology is linked to a social organization that exemplifies the worst of the abuses of the 19th century's Industrial Revolution, and in which the teeming masses of Europe and America spend most of their lives slaving in mega-factories.
