The Glass Sentence by S.E. Grove
4.0
This novel is set in a world that is similar to ours except for one very important fact. About a hundred years before, the world changed by what people called the Great Depression. Different places are in different timelines, so they might be out of sync by several hundred years with each other.
The story starts in 1891 Boston, MA. There is no more United States as different cities belong to different ages. A young lady named Sophia Tims is thought how to read maps by her famous cartographer uncle Shadrack. She goes on an adventure, escaping kidnappers and trying to find her uncle.
It's an interesting world and there is so much more to explore. Sophia meets with other people who join her on her quest to keep an artifact safe while searching for her uncle.
The villain's motives are understandable although the means are heavy handed.
I would recommend this book for anyone who likes adventure stories in a fantasy land that is similar to our 19th century earth and yet quite different.
