Review: A story about magic, a nice read but felt incomplete

I liked the concept of this story. I liked the characters and I liked the language, it reminded me of Sherlock Holmes and the time period setting of the book. What I did not like too much was that there were too many villains, and with hardly any reason for them to be there. They were suddenly introduced by Stephen and even Crane was surprised and confused so this reader was definitely ready to put the book down. I did want to see how the relationship between these two very mis-matched people would develop so I continued on but there was very little of that. There was a brief encounter where all of a sudden feelings of forever started to develop between the two but the story ended right there. I am not sure I will read the next one in this series.
