Rusty’s Reading List 2024

I mentioned I was reading this book when I was talking about Squire, and now I have finished it. This is fundamentally a steampunk mystery, wit fantasy elements laid over a real world period piece. But it does so while giving us a different pov than a euro-centric fantasy, which is a nice change.
But all of that aside, we have a fun story, while not particularly complicated (I figured out the mystery long before the end), that also gives us a surprising finish beyond the reveal.

I give this one a solid recommendation.
