What We Leave Behind
(2024)(The sixth book in the Periwinkle Perspective series)
A novel by Paul Eccentric
London, May 1900.
With the Brotherhood finally having been dealt with, Captain Gordon Periwinkle and Professor Hamble Blaise are finally free to mount their much-waylaid voyage to Venus, whereupon, they hope to discover the answer to the mysterious connection that links both Human and Martian life. There are still those; however, who would like to see the British Space Programme grounded for good: the members of the international Ad Astra Alliance, for a start, who are ready to declare war on Britain if they are to be continually denied access to Victoria's Moon...
The crew, meanwhile, have all been assembled, when at the eleventh hour, Queen Victoria announces her abdication and her intention to join them, along with her footman; her bodyguard, the space-phobic former assassin, Iggi Shikiwana and her favourite Pug, Venus.
Part six of The Periwinkle Perspective sees the series inaugural cycle coming to its inevitable conclusion, with the bringing together of plots and twists that you might not even have noticed being laid. But don't worry, there's still plenty more to come!
