Unfortunately, it was also a bit disjointed and confusing at times. Although the writing itself has no serious errors to detract from the story, it wasn't always easy to follow or immerse myself in the plot. I really think this would have benefitted from going for a more fantasy setting, instead of including things that tie the story to the real world. Overall, it's intriguing, but I'm not sure where I fall on how much I like it. Three stars for solid writing and a fun premise. ( ) keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
Gehört zur ReiheThe Memory Thief (4)
Imagine what our galaxy would look like if the Victorians had rediscovered space flight. What British merchant would be interested in a paltry business such as the East India Trading Company when he could invest in The East Milky Way Trading Company instead?Meriwether Klark remembers little of his former life before his father took him to New Campton Manor Station, only that his mother paid dearly for displeasing Lord Archibald Klark. Meriwether's new home is a strange place with an artificial sun, nannies made of metal, and ghostly echoes of someone locked below the mansion. While dodging his father's wrath, Meriwether learns the station is built on secrets . . . and he is determined to uncover them.Before long Meriwether is crawling through vents, constructing spying automatons and making friends with lower-class people his father would disapprove of. He discovers his father's greatest enemy is a vengeful vigilante known as The Phantom of the Station. If Meriwether is to ever find out what happened to his mother and expose all the wicked deeds his father has committed, he will have to team up with a man more dangerous than his father. And somehow he must keep up appearances and remain devilishly handsome in the latest frock coat fashions. If he is caught defying Lord Klark, he may end up dead.This is the fourth book in The Memory Thief Series, but it can be read as a stand-alone novel separate from the previous books.
