I first read this some years ago (2016 review) but I'm not sure I paid attention to the title: although telegraph clerk Thaniel Steepleton is the focal character, he's not the protagonist. Reread because I greatly enjoyed The Bedlam Stacks, and had just pre-ordered The Lost Future of Pepperharrow, which seems to be the third in a trilogy I didn't realise was happening.( no spoilers )
Altogether worse than pain was that maddeningly clear vision of having not tripped, not broken anything, when logic held up a lamp in the straight tunnel that time drove humans through, and showed that the walls were made of glass. [loc 4163]
