Black Powder War was excellent, though I am not so sorry to have raced through it in less than 48 hours, as it was mostly a set-up book. (Even if there were not a preview for the fourth book at the back of this one, how could the series be done? Nothing has been properly resolved!) The first book works pretty well as a stand-alone, but all the rest appear to be hopelessly entangled in each other, which is just fine with me. I really want to research the era now, to see just how much has been changed with the introduction of draconic aerial corps.

I am trying very hard not to speak like the characters (and to a lesser extent, the narration) do; the book is set at the very beginning of the 1800s. I would very much like to set myself to re-reading the entire thing right now (much like Iskierka's enthusiasm), but I know Dad wants to get his hands on it and it's time to get back to studying. It's been a lovely break! (Sadly, I cannot say the same for the characters in the book. What long, busy period!)
