The Emperor of North America

John McNicholâ€™s The Emperor of North America The Young Chesterton Chronicles Book 2 Itâ€™s been over a year since Gilbert Keith Chesterton and his friends defeated the Martian tripod invasion. Since then, he has a new faith, a new job as a reporter for the London Times, and a new loveâ€”a beautiful heiress named Frances. Life couldnâ€™t be better. But then things begin to go very wrong. Disturbing questions surface from Gilbertâ€™s murky past. His best friend Herbâ€™s sudden, unexplained wealth has made him distant and evasive. And the mysterious redheaded woman reappears, with trouble surely behind her. When Gilbert learns his life is in jeopardy, he leaves England and returns to his American homeland, where he thinks heâ€™ll be safe. There he meets a powerful man who calls himself the â€œEmperor of North America.â€ Why has he taken such a keen interest in Gilbertâ€™s career? Gilbert fights past dogged, airborne assassins and steam-powered cowboys, through the streets of New York and a floating city in the clouds. Along the way he learns that while his adversaries may change, America may not be any safer than England. For it is in America that both Gilbert and Herb will confront their most dangerous opponents yet...themselves. About the Book The Emperor of North America by John McNichol is the sequel to the bestselling novel The Tripods Attack! and the second volume in the Young Chesterton Chroniclesâ€”a delightfully inventive fiction series for teens to adults that re-imagines the famous Catholic author as a young man living in an alternative Edwardian age of steam-driven wonders. â€œThe Tripods Attack is a page-turning adventure of Chestertonian proportions, a feast of the imagination for the young and for adults. It rendered this reader ready to read more Chesterton, as well as, this, McNicholâ€™s next volume!â€ Kevin Vost, Psy.D., bestselling author of Tending the Temple and Memorize the Faith!
