I really enjoyed this book. It’s one of those books that tends to give you a lot of questions and reveals the answers slowly as the story proceeds. I had trouble putting the book down both because the story was interesting and because I wanted to know all the answers.This is a paranormal-type stor...
I think what I loved most about this book was the distinct lack of romance, there was no dark mysterious stranger or bad boy with a heart of gold who helped her discover who she is, and what she has to do.

That fact is interesting because Priest's latest work, Boneshaker, Dreadnought, and Clementine, are all set in an alternate history where the American Civil War continue...
