A Country Of Ghosts by Margaret Killjoy

A beautiful, thought-provoking dream of a quasi-19th century anarchist 'country' fighting for its existence against an expansionist empire.

Dimos Horacki is a Borolian journalist and a cynical patriot, his muckraking days behind him. But when his newspaper ships him to the front, he’s embedded in the Imperial Army and the reality of colonial expansion is laid bare before him.

His adventures take him from villages and homesteads to the great refugee city of Hronople, built of glass, steel, and stone, all while a war rages around him. The empire fights for coal and iron, but the anarchists of Hron fight for their way of life. 

A Country of Ghosts is a novel of utopia besieged and a tale that challenges every premise of contemporary society.
