Mortal Engines brought Philip Reeve's brilliantly crafted creation, the world of the Traction Era, where mobile cities fight for survival in a post-apocalyptic future. Now, in time for the film debut, the critically acclaimed Mortal Engines quartet is being repackaged with a fantastic and eye-catching cover featuring new illustrations. The first part introduces the young apprentice Tom Natsworthy and the deadly Hester Shaw, who are thrown from the fast-paced city of London into breathtaking adventures in the wastelands of the Great Hunting Ground.
