First Edition Hardback, Limited Edition of 500 copies only. Cloth hardback, foil embossed, vintage machine-sewn block with hand-finished headband and tailband. Individually commissioned drop caps to chapter openings. Plot: When a travelling Victorian freak show is marooned on a miserable deserted rock, it's every freak for themselves - tricky, if you're a young lad in a giant glass jar. Nonetheless, Dirty Boy is keen to make the most of their situation, even if the Brigadier and his dastardly sidekick, the Kitten, appear to have a malevolent plan up their grimy sleeves. With fellows in freakery such as Ruby the Hermaphrodite, Cedric the Dwarf and Chutney Daniel, and a local thistle-based home brew for inspiration, Dirty Boy rolls out on an adventure not merely to get off the island, but to uncover the mystery of their misshapen brethren and of creation itself.
