Mint the Hunter

Targeted by a mad scientist's deadly serum, these outcasts band together to uncover the truth and to fight back.

Spire City is home to mighty machines of steam power and clockwork, and giant beetles pull picturesque carriages over cobbled streets, but there is a darker secret behind these wonders. A deadly infection, created by a mad scientist, is spreading through the city, targeting the poor and powerless, turning them slowly into animals. A group of those infected by the serum join together to survive, to trick the wealthy out of their money, and to fight back.

As the city's tensions grow, Mint's task splits. He still seeks out people to infect, and thrills in the hunt, but he also must guard Orgood, a subtler and more challenging sort of hunt, when the enemies might be in any shadow or even in the well-lit halls of power.
