The first book in the award-winning Mortal Engines

quartet. 

In a dangerous future, huge motorized cities hunt, attack and

fight each other for survival.

As London pursues a small town, young apprentice Tom is flung

out into the wastelands, where a terrifying cyborg begins to hunt

him down.

Mortal Engines launched Philip Reeve’s brilliantly-imagined

creation, the world of the Traction Era, where mobile cities

fight for survival in a post-apocalyptic future.

Mortal Engines won the coveted Gold Smarties Award.

Now a feature film of the same name, starring Hera Hilmar, Robert

Sheehan and Hugo Weaving. Produced by Lord of the Rings director,

Peter Jackson.
