About This Item
PULLMAN, Philip. The Tin Princess. NY: Alfred A. Knopf [1994]. 8vo, [xii] 291pp. Maroon quarter cloth stamped in gold with brick red boards. Full-page b&w map. Light rubbing to lower edge, else a fine copy in original color pictorial dust jacket.
First hardcover edition, having been issued the same year in the UK, but only in paperback. Set in the same historical setting as his Sally Lockhart Trilogy, this is a standalone adventure. After witnessing a mysterious explosion, three young Londoners — Becky, Jim, and Adelaide — journey to a tiny country high in the mountains of Central Europe in 1882. They're an unlikely trio to lead a country, but when Adelaide's husband, the new king, is assassinated, she finds herself fighting for the crown — and her very life.
