Because this book involves mystery and conspiracy and therefore also involves twists and revelations, I’m not going to talk much about the plot. There were many things I loved about this book and one big thing that didn’t work for me at all. Now we have a new series from Kowal, which kicks off with Ghost Talkers. As it happens, she also writes great fiction, and her Regency fantasy series Glamourist Histories is delightful (you can read my reviews for that series here: Glamour in Glass, Valour and Vanity, Of Noble Family, and then Part I and Part II of my interview with Kowal.) She’s gracious in person and challenging, inspiring, and funny in print, and she does puppetry and hand sews Regency dresses, so I’d be disposed to follow her around like a puppy even if she never wrote a word of fiction. It’s no secret that I’m a huge Mary Robinette Kowal fan. Genre: Historical: European, Science Fiction/Fantasy
