When monsters make trouble in Queen Victoria's Empire, The Lamp Post Society is on the case. Unfortunately, so is its newest and most oblivious recruit.
Irish transplant Newsie has been down on his luck for as long as he can remember. After years of surviving on the isle of Elloc through sheer grit alone, he gets an interview with a woman known only as Employer. With startling magic and a flash of scales, Employer offers to change his life—right before he finds out monsters and supernaturals actually exist.
Scrappy, savvy, and just a little bit afraid at all times, Newsie Blake knows how to survive on the streets. Yet nothing can prepare him for the things that go bump in the foggy, cobbled streets of Elloc at night—not even the British Empire's premier monster hunting society.
With only a few days of training at The Lamp Post Society (and a mind that can't quite accept all of this is real), Newsie is thrown into danger with a wild cast of characters, including the powerful and aloof Audrey, a stunning half vampire who makes his already panicked heart beat dangerously fast.
Too bad she doesn't take him seriously—and neither do the Society's enemies. Can Newsie prove himself and turn his luck around, or is he destined to be monster bait?
The Lamp Post Society is a no spice, quirky gaslamp fantasy with mild language. This action-packed tale is perfect for fans of Suzannah Rowntree's Miss Dark's Apparitions series and Charlotte E. English's Modern Magick series.
