Mark Hodder - The Rise of the Automated Aristocrats (Burton & Swinburne 6, epub)[j_ray]

Sir Richard Francis Burton's expedition has returned from the future,
bringing with it knowledge of technologies that must remain secret if
history is to proceed as it should. However, when one of his colleagues
turns rogue, the secret falls into the hands of the very people most
likely to misuse it.

Betrayed, Burton and Swinburne watch in horror as the Empire's elite
employ the technology to secure their positions of privilege. When
London's parks are transformed into concentration camps, artists and
philosophers are declared enemies of the State, and propaganda
proliferates, the king's agent finds himself on the wrong side of - the
king!

Can Burton and his band of hunted revolutionaries overthrow an
apparently indestructible and immortal autocrat ... and if so, at what
personal cost?

The Spring Heeled Jack saga reaches its explosive conclusion!
