Philip Reeve; Mortal Engines; Complete set of 1st editions of the novels - all signed and lined by the author, 2001-2006

A complete set of signed and lined novels from the hugely popular children's fantasy series, Mortal Engines. Each first edition copy is signed by the author, Philip Reeve, who has also written one his lines from each book.

Philip Reeve’s Mortal Engines series is a bold blend of steampunk fantasy and dystopian science fiction, set in a far future where vast mobile cities roam the world, consuming smaller towns in a harsh system known as Municipal Darwinism. Following Tom Natsworthy and the fiercely independent Hester Shaw, the books examine the costs of technological ambition, imperial power, and environmental ruin, without offering simple heroes or villains. Inventive, dark, and emotionally resonant, the series is celebrated for its striking world-building and its readiness to show that progress often comes at a heavy price.
