Hunted across a shattered landscape, Tom teams up with the fierce, disfigured Hester Shaw, and together they uncover secrets threatening every city on the Great Hunting Ground. Predator's Gold follows the pair as they flee London for Anchorage, a static city besieged by plague and ghostly visions. Infernal Devices widens the Traction Era's scope, introducing Tom and Hester's daughter Wren and the sinister underwater city of Grimsby. A Darkling Plain concludes the quartet, following Wren and Tom by airship across the Bird Roads as a discovery in London's wreckage forces a reckoning with Hester's past. Across all four novels, Reeve blends breathless action with genuinely moving character arcs in a world that feels both fantastical and eerily plausible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eComplete quartet in one set:\u003c\/strong\u003e All four Mortal Engines novels together, ideal for series completists and new readers alike.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAward-winning storytelling:\u003c\/strong\u003e Includes the Smarties Gold Award-winning Mortal Engines and the Guardian Children's Fiction Prize-winning A Darkling Plain.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStriking collectible artwork:\u003c\/strong\u003e Repackaged with eye-catching new covers by illustrator Ian McQue.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePerfect for fans of steampunk and dystopian fiction:\u003c\/strong\u003e A must for readers who enjoy inventive worldbuilding and morally complex characters.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGreat gifting option:\u003c\/strong\u003e A substantial, good-value boxed set for birthdays, Christmas, or classroom libraries.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDurable paperback format:\u003c\/strong\u003e Lightweight and portable, easy for teen readers to carry and share.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nPhilip Reeve is a bestselling British author and illustrator best known for creating the Mortal Engines quartet, a series that redefined YA steampunk and speculative fiction.
