The Curious Case of the Werewolf That Wasn't by Gail Carriger

dinnureads's review

4.0

Alexia's father was indeed a nasty piece of work but as witty as Alexia herself...Of course he met her mother in a not-quite-galavant way but at least I got to satisfy mh curiosity :D

Curses! Like all Gail Carriger books - it was over too quickly. Worse than usual - it was a just an amuse bouche of a tale. A tasty little mouthful.

More, Ms. Carriger! We reader-fans are insatiable.

I’ve read this story at least three times now (maybe four) and still love it. I catch something new every time. If you’re a fan of Gail Carriger, this is a must read! (It centers on Alexia’s father in his younger days.)

Me he llevado un pequeño chasco. Hacía mucho que no leía nada de Gail Carriger y tenía muchas ganas, y esto me ha sabido a poco. A muy poco. Es poco más que un par de bocetos sobre un personaje prometedor: el padre de Alexia.

A bit jumbled at the beginning but interesting.

Fun, but in a different way to the main PP books. Alessandro is morally grey, much more so than his pragmatic but generally well-meaning daughter, so he's harder to root for but still interesting to read about.
