The workshop was only the beginning. Beyond its doors lies an entire world built by humans, machines, memories and forgotten inventions.
A WORLD OF WONDERS expands the universe of THE ODD LITTLE WORKSHOP far beyond the familiar streets of the first volume.
The mechanical daughters leave home and begin traveling through a strange retro-futuristic world where technology has evolved in unexpected and wonderfully imperfect ways.
Their journey leads them aboard forgotten railways and desert landships, through cities constructed inside colossal machines, mechanical forests, strange festivals, floating postal stations, memory markets, observatories, traveling circuses and settlements unlike anything they have encountered before.
Machines are no longer simply tools in this world.
