One of the things I enjoy so much about this book is it seems and reads effortlessly. Carriger combines steampunk with vampires, with werewolves and makes it seems like it is a plausible, secret awesome history we're missing out on. Her alt-England is entirely believable, and in many cases the way i...
What a well written book! I did not want it to end....Gail Carriger creates her own version of Victorian England. It is a world where vampires and werewolves and ghosts coexist with humans.

I should admit two things before I start this review. I didn't finish this book; however, it does not belong on my ick-attack shelf (the shelf for truly bad books). Second, I really wanted to like this book. I really did.I have several problems with this book. Maybe, I'm the wrong person to read...
I love this book! To say it was a refreshing antidote to overly sappy Victorian novels is an understatement. I'll admit that I had my doubts. I mean, the book was all but thrust into my hands by an extremely enthusiastic sales clerk at Borders in Wayzata, Minnesota. He gushed about the book so m...
Soulless was a bit hard to get into for me at first, but I really enjoyed the book. Alexia, a preternatural, who can remove sup powers by touch, is a spinster in London high society. The relationships between her and Lords Maccon and Akeldama were very funny.
Soulless is a really fun read. It is an Urban fantasy/British Victorian/Steampunk style book written in a very witty tone. This story grabbed me from the very first pages. The story and style is highly original and refreshing and kept me laughing and entertained throughout.Soulless tells the story o...
This is the best book I have read in a very long time. It is absolutely delightful and I will be following this series (and this author) for a very long time.Amelia Peabody and Emerson have been two of my favorite characters for a very long time (see Crocodile on the Sandbank). Well, Miss Tarabotti ...
With the exception of the opening pages, the first 70 or 80 pages were extremely boring and Alexia was unbelievably irritating. I put this book down several times and seriously entertained abandoning it until the action started up. I pushed on and found that Alexia grew on me and the humour greatly ...
A charming and very witty mix of a multitude of sub-genres. Soulless kept me fixated on the plot while entertaining me throughout with laugh-out-loud moments and I think I might have even blushed a few times. Even the author description was entertaining in its hilarity. Read More...
Briefly: Read it. Soulless is exactly what I wanted and didn’t get from Pride and Prejudice and Zombies. It’s a pithy, funny, tongue-firmly-in-cheek mesh of Victorian manners and morés, and absurd occult occurrences. Alexia Tarabotti is an intriguing and amusing MC, completely un-Victorian and yet s...
