Description
Alternative history comedy.
When the Atlantic City Comet states that Isambard Kingdom Brunel was a Great Fridge Builder it falls upon Tyrus Poe, with the able assistance of Professor Delphi in his New York City branch of The Typo Agency, to travel back in time to put Brunel on the right track. History as we know and love it is at stake with the certainty that if he fails Prince Albert will be confined to Newgate Prison for smashing a bottle over the Marquis of Exeter and the city of Bristol would be overhung by a massive suspension fridge. These are but two of the many calamities that would ensue.
What They Have to Say About The Typo Files: Brunel the Fridge Builder:
'This book transcends many boundaries...I still haven't removed it from my travelling bag yet.' Alexander the Great.
'I couldn't put it down.' Neil Armstrong aboard Apollo 11 in 1969.
'I engaged with this book immediately...despite the fact it was neither buxom nor had a great pair of pins like the previous six I engaged with.' Henry VIII
'The humour and pacey storyline had me enslaved. Although, it might've been that pompous twit Cicero who was responsible for that.' Marcus Tullius Tiro
Excerpt:
Would the human race really be worse off if none of Brunel's engineering projects existed? Obviously, the people currently crossing the Clifton Suspension Bridge would be a heck of a lot worse off.
Brunel became the first man to make the crossing alongside a young construction worker in a suspended basket pulled across the Gorge by ropes ... However, it became stuck leaving Brunel and his travelling companion swinging 250 feet in a basket above the River Avon. It was the first case in history of 'I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out of Here'.
