Oh My Wow!! This book was really good. I felt like this one started off better, than the first book in the series, I was able to just dive right in.
The storyline was great and I enjoyed the Egyptian tie in, as well as, the travel to Scotland to meet Lord Maccon's former pack. I also like how the new characters fit into the already developing story. Alexia and Conall's relationship is one of the best parts of the books. I love how they tease and playfully torture each other, all while engaging in some friendly competition.
I could have done without Felicity, her character just annoys me and I didn't like her in the first book. She's bitter, jealous, and immature and I probably would have used the Parasol on her. Some of the science stuff was a bit confusing and I was getting irritated because I kept pronouncing the name of the machine a different way each time. I'm also glad I read the e-book because their were so many new words for me and I loved looking up the definitions to them. Hopefully I can add them to my vocabulary!
Oh and must I mention the ending? While I like the fact that some of the mystery parts were left unsolved, to hopefully continue in the other books, the big finale, left me in shock!! I have so many questions and so much disappointment in a particular character...but I have so much anticipation for Book 3!! I was going to wait to continue the series, but, after that ending I immediately put the next book on hold. Good job Gail Carriger, I am hooked!
