500    "A Tom Doherty Associates Book." 
520    An "alternate history novel that explores the question of 
       what might have come of Belgium's ... colonization of the 
       Congo if the native populations had learned about steam 
       technology a bit earlier"--Amazon.com. 
520    Fabian Socialists from Great Britain join forces with 
       African-American missionaries to purchase land from the 
       Belgian Congo's "owner," King Leopold II. This land, named
       Everfair, is set aside as a safe haven, an imaginary 
       Utopia for native populations of the Congo as well as 
       escaped slaves returning from America and other places 
       where African natives were being mistreated. As the native
       populations adopt advances in steam technology as their 
       own, an uneasy truce between the country's many factions 
       leads to a revolt against Leopold's harsh reign.
