Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Some doors only open at midnight.Twelve-year-old Juniper Soraya has learned to keep everything she owns in three cardboard boxes. Six foster homes in four years will teach you that: never unpack, always know where the exits are, and never, ever let yourself believe you'll be chosen.Then, on the night before another move, a carousel appears in the empty lot outside her window-midnight-blue and gold, its horses already turning, a silver-white fox with a glowing lantern waiting beside it. In her pocket is a golden ticket she never saw arrive.The Midnight Waymaker travels between five impossible worlds: a kingdom of floating candy islands, a desert crossed by city-sized turtles, a forest of living clockwork, a lake that reflects the truth you've been hiding from yourself, and a circus trapped beneath an endless eclipse. Scattered across those worlds are the shards of a shattered star-and only children who are truly lost can find them.But Juniper isn't the only one searching. The Ringmaster was a lost child once, too. What he became is what Juniper might become, if her fear of being left behind ever wins.To bring everyone home, she'll have to do the one thing she's spent her whole life avoiding: choose to belong-out loud, on purpose-and believe she deserves it.The Midnight Waymaker is a heartfelt, beautifully written middle grade fantasy adventure about found family, courage, and the quiet magic of being truly seen. Perfect for readers who love portal fantasy, magical adventures, and emotional stories with heart.A magical carousel that appears at midnightAn unforgettable found-family adventureFive spellbinding worlds to exploreA tender story about belonging, hope, and finding homeBook One of the Waykeeper ChroniclesStep onto the carousel. The journey begins at midnight.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Paris, 1899. While the city tears open its streets for the coming Exposition and prepares to enter a new century of electricity, photography, and machines, automaton restorer Lucien Vautrin still believes in one comforting truth: every movement has a cause.Then La Veuve arrives.The eighteenth-century mourning automaton is built to perform exactly thirty-one movements. Lucien dismantles her, traces every cam and linkage, and confirms the mechanism completely.After the spring stops, she performs a thirty-second.Two fingers touch her throat. One foot drags. Her head turns toward an empty chair. Three knocks sound against the table.Days later, a man dies repeating the same sequence.Determined to prove that someone has tampered with the machine, Lucien joins forces with physician Madeleine Aubert, whose understanding of the human body is as exacting as his knowledge of clockwork. Their investigation leads through private collections, forgotten workshops, behavioral experiments, and a hidden mechanical theatre where life-sized automatons rehearse the movements of real people.Then Lucien finds a figure that should not exist.It reproduces the private habits of Léonie, his younger sister, who vanished twenty-six years earlier.As the line between imitation, manipulation, memory, and the impossible begins to disappear, Lucien must determine whether the machines are predicting human behavior, being used to manufacture it, or preserving something no mechanism should be able to hold.Because almost everything La Veuve has done can be explained.Almost.The Sepia Mechanist is an atmospheric historical Gothic horror novel blending psychological suspense, murder mystery, mechanical obsession, and restrained supernatural dread in the rain-dark streets of fin-de-siècle Paris.…
