The Iron Jackal by Chris Wooding

4.0

Reread 2020: I'm enjoying revisiting these books via audiobook. The only voice I'm not thrilled with is Trinica's but by this point I'm more or less used to it. I like seeing the Ketty Jay crew become the little dysfunctional family that they are. My original four star rating still stands.

Ignore the cheesy cover because no one group of people can manage to get into as much trouble as the crew of the Ketty Jay. This time around the crew is trying to save Frey from an ancient curse. At the same time, Frey is trying to win back the heart of the only woman who has ever truly owned his own. What follows is another fun and adventurous romp that continues to deliver high humor and entertainment. This time we get some more insight into Silo, the ship's usually silent engineer. Not sure how I feel about the new addition but, with only one more book to go in the series, I won't have to tolerate the ramifications for long, for good or ill.
