So once again, you should remember that I am a not-unbiased reader of this book. Just wanted to throw that out there.
A great little story to tide us over until the next book comes out. Natalie continues to be a wonderful character and I like seeing Miranda continue to show her depth. We get plenty of little clues into the mysticism of this world. I can't wait to learn more.
Awesome! A must-read novella for fans of Milford's world, and especially for those who wanted more Natalie after they finished The Boneshaker.
If you liked this book, you might also enjoy The Boneshaker and The Broken Lands.
