Review: Not the introduction to steampunk novels I was hoping for . . .
Rating: 3 out of 5

Everything about the steampunk aesthetic appeals to me, so I was hoping to enjoy this book a great deal.  I was entertained by it, but not much more.Much of that has to be my fault -- as I read a 1.5 story without having read the 1.  Readers of this are dropped into the middle of a story where the characters have already been introduced and set up.  But some of it is with the relatively tepid plot (not uncommon with .5 stories).Bottom line -- if you are a fan of the series, this is something you will probably enjoy.  If you are new to the series, best to start with the first novel and progress to this.
