Clockwork Lives: The Graphic Novel
Some lives can be summed up in a sentence or two. Other lives are epics.

Marinda Peake is a woman with a quiet, perfect life in a small village; she long ago gave up on her dreams and ambitions in order to take care of her ailing father, an alchemist and inventor. When he dies, he gives Marinda a mysterious gift: a blank book that she must fill with other people’s stories—and ultimately her own.

Clockwork Lives is a steampunk Canterbury Tales—and much more—that follows Marinda as she strives to change her life from a “mere sentence or two” to a true epic.

Based on the world they previously introduced in Clockwork Angels, Kevin J. Anderson and Neil Peart take the graphic novel to new heights with this adaptation of the best-selling book Clockwork Lives.

About the Author

About The Author
Widely considered one of the most innovative drummers in rock history, Neil Peart (1952-2020) was the backbone of the legendary Rock ‘n Roll Hall of Fame band Rush. Neil’s virtuosity behind the kit was equaled by his talent as the band’s lyricist. Affectionately dubbed “The Professor” by the fans, he tapped into his love and deep knowledge of poetry, literature, philosophy, and science to pen such classics as “The Spirit of Radio,” “Free Will,” and the self-described autobiographical “Subdivisions” and “Limelight.”

Neil’s talent for the written word, passion for the open road, and desire to chronicle milestones in his life led to the publication of seven memoirs, including Ghost Rider: Travels on the Healing Road, Roadshow: Landscape with Drums, and Traveling Music: Playing Back the Soundtrack to My Life and Times. Collaborating with Kevin J. Anderson, Neil also wrote the novel Clockwork Angels, a fictionalization of Rush’s 2012 album of the same name, and a sequel, Clockwork Lives. Silver Surfers is the final work of Neil's long and prolific writing career.

On January 7, 2020, Neil passed away after a private, three-and-a-half-year struggle with brain cancer. He is survived by his wife Carrie, and daughter Olivia.
