It seems to be set in the same world as Nation - an alternative Victorian Britain. I know a lot of people didn't much care for Nation, but I loved it.

From what I heard it'll be about a boy working in the sewers

To be honest, it took me a couple of goes to read but once I got into it I thought it was excellent.

Tonyblack - although yes, earlier information from Terry had suggested it was in the same universe as Nation, Terry (or Rob) wrote on twitter yesterday that it definitely /not/ a sequel to Nation, so it is unlikely to be in the same universe.

It's about the workers in the Thames sewers in Victorian times called dodgers.

Thanks for clearing that up, molokov. Wharever it is, I'll be waiting in antisipation.

Given the subject matter of the book, my mind read that as constipation.

[Tonyblack]

Mind like a sewer . . .

Dammit, Bouncy, you beat me to it!

And to have my old-grumpy-man-ramblings off the list:
Are you still going to say there ain't a rather scatalogical turn in the past few works?

There's a blurb of Dodger HERE along with (I think) the American cover.
