Romulus Buckle And The Luminiferous Aether (The Chronicles Of The Pneumatic Zeppelin #3) - Plot & Excerpts
The weight of the helmet above the water was a struggle but he felt relieved, relieved to be away from the gagool. It would be good to get the helmet off, to breathe air that wasn’t stale. A pale white hand reached down from above, the fingers impossibly stiff. It was the arm of a statue, a beautiful marble woman leaning over the water. Flesh and blood human beings worked diligently alongside her, their pink and brown faces leaning over the edges of the pool as they fished the divers out of the water. Strong hands with sleeves rolled up to the elbows soon found Buckle, leveraging harness straps under his armpits and winching him out of the water. Swinging through the air until his diving boots landed on the deck, Buckle’s faceplate fogged and his suit felt heavy, dangerously so, to the point where he was impatient for someone to pry him out of it even as he felt expert hands unstrapping, unscrewing and unbuckling him from the gear. The helmet locks clicked and it lifted, straight up, over his head.
