Arabella and the Battle of Venus: Volume 2

Though happy to be back on her home planet of Mars, Arabella's peace is shattered when she receives distressing news. Her long-absent fianc? Capt. Prakash Singh, commander of the Honorable Mars Company airship Diana, has been taken as a prisoner of war on Venus, the very planet where the exiled Napoleon has fled.

Desperate to rescue Singh any way she can, Arabella pays off the gambling debts of a rakish privateer captain in order to arrange passage on his vessel. But when they're captured by a French squadron and taken to Venus, Arabella finds herself reunited with Singh, as a captive in the same brutal prison-camp.

In a spacefaring adventure filled with interplanetary espionage, cosmic combat, and mind-blowing inventions, Arabella finds herself torn between two very different--yet ultimately courageous--men. Together they plot a daring conspiracy to expose Napoleon's dangerous plan: the building of a secret weapon that would make the French emperor virtually unstoppable.

"A fanciful romp through a cosmic 1812, Hugo Award-winning Levine's first novel is a treat for steampunk fantasy fans." --Library Journal (starred review)
