In two weeks time the first volume of the Iremonger trilogy will be published in the UK. In it all the rubbish of Victorian London is amassed in one borough of London and is controlled by one family, the Iremongers. A not very pleasant bunch, grown up in filth.
Book one is set in their mansion within the heaps.
Book two is set in the borough of rubbish as the walls separating it from the rest of London proper begin to breach.
Book three is set in London where the Iremongers are forbidden to tread.
But first, before I really started writing at all I drew this pencil drawing. It’s my first drawing of Clod Iremonger, back then he was called Discord or Cordy for short.
