Fantina arrives in 1902 Venice, Italy, in search of fortune and glory, but uncovers, instead, a secret plot to destroy the city. Now she must join a mysterious guild of gondoliers and harness the unseen power of Glim to defeat the evil forces at work.
A “recommended” read by the US Review of Books, "The Gondoliers: The Secret Journals of Fanticulous Glim," blends elements of Italian folklore, steampunk fantasy and a touch of Venetian history to introduce young readers to a new and wondrous world. “...this is one of those books that grabs the imagination from the first sentence and never lets go.” (Kat Kennedy, The US Review of Books)
