Gorgeous art, great characters, and an engaging story. I wish it had been slightly longer, but I'm happy to read any Lady Mechanika story.

Received via NetGalley.

I've fallen in love with the Lady Mechanika books. The stories are great and the art is lavish, with mindbogglingly intricate details. This series has become not just a must read for me, but a must buy.

3 Stars for the writing, 4 for the art. This is super pulpy stuff, but fun and drawn beautifully. The writing isn't bad, it just doesn't stick out as especially creative or witty. I love how she has a different outfit on every cover. This one was much more "Indiana Jones" than the first book, which focused on her origins (which weren't really revealed, so hoping to get back to that).

The Story

The story was a bit more slow than the last one and I didn't have much of a care about it in the beginning. I had to stop for a couple of days before I picked it back up again. The story picked up again towards the second half of the book which I really appreciated. This took the story away from Lady Mechanika's origin and introduced new characters. This story showcased the type of things our heroine usually does on a daily basis and that's help people. Considering how Lady Mechanika feels about herself, you can tell that everyone who meets her and knows her really thinks highly of her. There was a lot of speaking

Our Heroine

Lady Mechanika shows a lot more of her sensitive side in this book, and while the book showcased her fighting skills there was not as much this time instead showing that our heroine can use her brains almost as well as her brawns. This was a point on the books behalf.
