Meer over het boek

Set in 19th century London, the story follows Isaac Fairchild, a dimwitted beggar summoned by the sinister Horrabin, a clown who leads a guild of down-and-out individuals. Horrabin is rumored to maim his followers to enhance their begging skills. In a hidden chamber, Fairchild discovers Horrabin's plan to merge his mind with that of the Spoonsize Boys, tiny homunculi used for theft and assassination. While Fairchild longs for intelligence and understanding, he must confront the significant costs of such transformation.
