Award-winning author Adrian Tchaikovsky's Made Things is a dark fantasy tale of how the most unlikely characters may become the most heroic.

Making friends has never been so important.

Welcome to Fountains Parish - a cesspit of trade and crime, where ambition curls up to die and desperation grows on its cobbled streets like mould on week-old bread.

Coppelia is a street thief, a trickster, a low-level con artist. But she has something other thieves don't... tiny puppet-like companions: some made of wood, some of metal. They don't entirely trust her, and she doesn't entirely understand them, but their partnership mostly works.

Praise for Adrian Tchaikovsky:

'One of the best storytellers in the business' - John Scalzi, author of Old Man's War on Service Model

'Addictively brilliant!' - John Gwynne, author of Malice on The Tiger and the Wolf

'Few contemporary writers have Adrian Tchaikovsky's range, excelling at chunky far-future hard SF as well as high-fantasy epics' - The Guardian
