Morlock Night
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Morlock Night is a science fiction novel by K. W. Jeter. It was published in 1979 and is seen as one of the first steampunk novels. It uses the ideas of H. G. Wells in which the Morlocks of The Time Machine themselves use the device to travel back into the past and menace Victorian London. Bizarrely, King Arthur and Merlin appear as England's saviors.
