I thought the first half of the book was really fast paced and amusing , second half still enjoyable but I found it ended abruptly,Fun YA book.

The audio book was amazing, although I wasn't the biggest fan of the voice that was given to Gil

Very fun and clever! Could've done without all the Agatha in her underwear and descriptions of her body (or, if those have to stay, do it to one of the male characters, too), but I'll just pretend those didn't happen.

This was an absolutely entertaining read. It has been a very long time since I picked up a book and read into the wee hours of the morning simply because I couldn't get enough of it. Can't wait until the next one comes out!

A good story that I felt uses steampunk more as a magic system than a setting which made it easy to get through. With very likable characters with understandable villains the first installment of this series sets off strong with one glaring exception. What in the world was with the super rushed, inconsistent romance? Could have been handled much more professionally, even a cliche romance would have been better than what they gave us. Fortunately the strange romance aspect of the book didn't take away from the lovely story telling and rich fantasy world the Foglios have created. I will likely continue the series at a future date.

I have been a fan of this comic for the last few years so when I saw that there was a book released I purchased it. I was glad I did because the book adds some depth to the characters that I found quite enjoyable.

This book is FUN! It's a lot like reading an anime: talking cat, fighting robots, damsel with a destiny who expresses herself by whacking people upside the head... It's got swashbuckling, it's got romance, it's got great comedic dialogue. I really enjoyed seeing a German-inspired sci-fi/fantasy setting, as so many books use either America or England for their frame of reference. And I really loved big, strong, awkward, unsure, hopeful, traumatized, Agatha. I would looove to see this series brought to Netflix or something.
Was it the most "literary" thing I've ever read? No. Was it the adventurous, humorous, breath-of-fresh-air I desperately needed? Absolutely! Cannot wait to dive right into the next book.
