Western Lights novels
[edit]The Western Lights series is a gaslamp fantasy alternate history series which takes place in a world where the last Ice Age never ended, and in which an unknown cataclysm called the "sundering" - believed to be a volcanic eruption or a meteor strike - obliterated most life on Earth and worsened the Ice Age. The surviving English colonies along the west coast of North America are isolated from the outside world and, two hundred years after the sundering, remain culturally and technologically in the Victorian era. The series takes its name from the fact that the west coast of North America is "the sole place on earth where the lights still shine at night." [2]
