Jones and the Orphan Planet

This will be the next published ‘Jones’ story, at present it is a work in progress. It should be the longest ‘Jones’ story to date.
It has a bit more of an epic feel and could even be described as ‘steampunk’, although I am not always sure what that means! It is the first story that doesn’t feature Earth as a backdrop and introduces us to other new and interesting planets.
Be prepared for action; a war, biplanes, dogfights, intrigue and the delightfully dangerous Erica (did you wonder about her in the Mammoth story?)

Hopefully it will be finished in about a month….pester me if it’s not?
