The Infernal Machine
Fans of Jay Kristoff will devour Snyder’s strange, dark, and fantastical world.
“It brings to mind Salvador Dali's The Persistence of Memory. I think because it's a strange painting my association between the two is that they feel the same-strangely mesmerizing yet disorienting with a touch of despair.”

“This dark fantasy is dripping with occult intrigue and an inception-like atmosphere. Fighting Nazi’s, fighting devils, and fighting the demons within…you.”

Arthur White lived a simple life tending the dead in a quiet cemetery until he meets a mysterious stranger known only as Mr. Black. In a few short hours, the stranger turns the groundskeeper’s life upside down, burdening Arthur with an immortal clockwork heart.
Over the years, Arthur works as Mr. Black’s right hand, doing whatever old warlock cannot dirty his hands with. But the death of a mutual friend and the discovery of Lucifer’s cast-off heart catalyze them into action, setting off a global chase to recover the artifact and open the door to death.
Along the way, Arthur struggles with evils he’s committed, dreams of loss plague him, and endures desperate loneliness that may be cured by the appearance of a mysterious new companion, Ava. But before they can get to know one another, they must confront a cult out to steal the heart for their own ends.
Before it’s over, Arthur, Ava, and Mr. Black will have to face who they are and what they’ve done or perish in a brutal new world. Whatever remains from the ashes may be their only hope.
