The Company

Poor Mendoza. She's not thrilled about being sent to Renaissance England. It's a cold, backward, unsafe country. Gray curtains of rain. The food crawling with bacteria. No flush toilets. She won't get to see Shakespeare either. He hasn't been born yet. The English hate the Spanish like smallpox, especially now with bulldog-faced Mary on the throne. But Mendoza is no longer a frightened little girl in the dungeons of the Inquisition; she's a Company-trained...

Mendoza, the immortal cyborg, is grown a new body and raised to consciousness. Mendoza, and the three incarnations of her not-quite-human love, Nicholas Harpole/Edward Bell-Fairfax/Alec, are all together for the first time and now they can really begin to fight back against the Company.

A new member of the Gentlemen's Speculative Society, Edward learns that a secret world flourishes beneath the surface of London's society. He becomes a Victorian super-assassin, fleeing across the Turkish countryside and honing his fighting skills against clockwork opponents.

A collection of seven short stories set in the universe of the Company chronicles the history and adventures of the organization and its operatives, including Mendoza, Lewis, and Joseph.

Lady Beatrice was the proper British daughter of a proper British soldier, until tragedy struck and sent her home to walk the streets of early-Victorian London. But Lady Beatrice is no ordinary whore, and is soon recruited to join an underground establishment known as Nell Gwynne's.
