A review by fossen
Clementine by Cherie Priest
4.0
While not the epic the other Clockwork Century books have been, here's another excellent read. It's a dead-simple plot, but it's in the characters that CLEMENTINE makes it's mark. There are two "leads" here, and both are complex and interesting, and the relationship that grows between them is rich and natural.
It can't be denied that part of the fun in Priest's books is that she's (consciously or not) creating heroes that have gone criminally under-represented in SF/F in general. Regardless of intent, it certainly feels refreshing.
