Kimberly asked Rod Duncan:

In what year is Unseemly Science set?

Rod Duncan Hi Kimberly,

Unseemly science is set in the opening decade of the 21st Century. I believe the year is 2008 - but I would need to check my notes to be completely certain.

Because of the establishment of the International Patent Office, the progress of science and technology has been held back. The world looks very much as it did in 1901 - though not precisely the same. There are no railroads, for example.

If you read on to The Custodian of Marvels, you will discover exactly what happened to push the world on this strangely unfamiliar course.

Best wishes.

Rod
