Teenager Miranda Candle finds a mysterious necklace and is suddenly transported to The Nex, the bizarre city at the center of all possible universes, where she falls in with a pair of would-be revolutionaries -- the skinshifter Howlaa and the bodiless Wisp -- fighting the oppressive regime of the city-state's Regent and his army of steam colossi, cynical cyborgs, and the depraved royal orphans.
This is a wonderful YA novel, one of the best I've ever read, and I can't recommend it highly enough (in fact, I made a donation while The Nex was being serialized online and my name is on the acknowledgements of the novel). If you haven't read Pratt's work before, give it a try. I'm sure you'll love it (and the go on and read his Marla Mason novels and his story "Impossible Dreams": they're all amazing).
