About the event

Underlings: The Spark Engine - Book Launch
Alongside the Museum of Power's heritage weekend, children's author Murray Fisher will be celebrating the launch of his novel "Underlings: The Spark Engine" ( https://murrayfisher.co.uk/book-underlings-the-spark-engine/) in the main pump room. The book is an exciting science-fiction adventure for ages 9+.

Murray will be signing copies of the book from 10.00am-2.00pm, followed at 2.30pm by an exclusive reading from the book and a Q&A with the author and Alissa McDonald from Toller Press, the book's publisher.

There will also be a special scavenger hunt throughout the museum, themed around the book, with a prize for every child who completes it.

A fantastic family day out, with a chance to meet the author and purchase a personally signed copy of the book (synopsis below).

--- Underlings: The Spark Engine Synopsis ---
Barely surviving in the machine-powered subterranean city of Lode, lone underling Evin discovers a skeletal hand clutching a cryptic note.

Driven to unlock Lode’s secrets, Evin and her mech-dog Jet face danger at every turn: unscrupulous bullies, brutish guards and the deadly fumes of the dragonsbreath.

But to reveal the truth, Evin must trust new friendships, battle her way upwards and confront the city’s deceptive leader, Cardinal Mavka, before the world she knows comes crashing down.
