A Cautious Traveler's Guide to the Wasteland by Sarah Brooks... "It is said that there is a price to pay for every traveler to the Wasteland. A price greater than the cost of a train journey. The world in the nineteenth century is full of wonders, but none compare to the wonders of the Wasteland, the desolate expanse between Beijing and Moscow teeming with terrible supernatural phenomena, forbidden to all except the Great Trans-Siberian Express. A formidable train built for transporting goods across continents, it carries those brave enough to travel through the mysterious Wasteland. On the platform stand all sorts of people: a woman in mourning with an assumed name, a famous girl born on the train, a notorious naturalist, all headed to the Grand Exhibition in Moscow. But the old rules are changing, and whispers are growing that safety has abandoned the train. Now, secrets and stories rear their heads among the passengers and crew who must make their way through the Wasteland together, even when something uncontrollable seems to have seeped inside."
