Toiling away down in the engine rooms of the World of Mortal Engines are a lot of people without whom the whole thing would grind to a horrible, shuddering halt. They include my editors Marion Lloyd, Alice Swan and Jessica White, Alyx Price and her team in publicity, and everybody else at Scholastic; my agent, Philippa Milnes-Smith; Karl Barwe Paul for the
Kometsvansen;
my military advisor and ideas testing range Jeremy Levett, and the Legend that is Kjartan Poskitt. Thank you all.
