Review: Fun and with a touch of steam (in the world and the romance)

There were lot of little bits of good thing going on Steam & Sorcery. A bit of steampunk, a bit of magic, some very special children, a bit of steamy romance and a very likable leading lady. And while I enjoyed the book, most of these good bits were under-utilized. I just wanted to see more of everything Pape set up, more of the Knights of the round table (hereditary mage-ish gentlemen who secretly protect England from predation by evil vampires) and more of the ragtag bunch of also magical children.But I did like the story well enough that I will be checking out the next one (which I was lucky enough to snag a free kindle preorder) and hoping that with her next sojourn to this world inPhotographs & Phantoms, Pape delves a bit deeper into all the good stuff in that world - there is such potential.
