Third in this series of easy-to-read, funny paranormal urban/steampunk fantasy. I think this is definitely the weakest of the series so far, as the plot was lackluster, but I think it will serve to move the series forward towards the next book. The parts following Alexia were dragged a bit, but the parts back in London following Lyall et al were much more riveting. The resolution seemed a bit rushed, and then left on a cliffhanger, without us learning much about what Alexia spent the whole book trying to figure out (the nature of her and Conall’s child) . I loved getting to see more of Madame Lefoux and some focus on Lyall and his impeccable work as Beta, holding the whole pack together. I look forward to more of the pack dynamics and seeing Biffy’s development. As usual, Carriger’s clever word-play and dry humor make this an entertaining and easy read.
