The Boundless by Kenneth Oppel

4.0

That gorgeous cover caught my eye but the story was so action-packed, it surprised me how much I got pulled in! Chapter one threw me for a couple of loops in a good way and it kept going from there. I loved this book! So much to talk about, so many interesting tidbits- railroad building, mystical creatures, circus acts, classism, racism, magic... I could go on and on.

I would caution elementary librarians to only recommend this to their most mature readers as it intimates prostitution and has some violence, but I'd let my personal child read it.
