Professor Jacob Emery publishes novel A Clockwork River, co-written with his sister

Thursday, October 14, 2021

Professor Jacob Emery’s novel A Clockwork River, co-written with his sister under the name J. S. Emery, was published on October 14, 2021.

An advance review in SFX gave the book 4.5 out of 5 stars and compared it to Mervyn Peake and Charles Dickens. Simon Ings featured A Clockwork River in his column on the best new science fiction and fantasy for The Times, calling the novel “as charming as it is uncontainable, an uber-confident picaresque comedy in the authentic, madcap 18th-century manner.”
