Summary

Oxford, 1836. The city of dreaming spires. It is the centre of all knowledge and progress in the world. And at its heart is Babel, Oxford University's prestigious Royal Institute of Translation. The tower from which all the power of the Empire flows. Orphaned in Canton and brought to England by a mysterious guardian, Robin Swift thought Babel a paradise. Until it became a prison... But can a student stand against an empire?
