The Iron Wyrm Affair by Lilith Saintcrow
3.0
Back into the world of steampunk with Sorceresses, Mentaths, Shields all in the name of Britannica! Confused? That's ok, because that's pretty much how I felt for most of the the Iron Wyrm Affair.
A lushly written book that's held back by the sheer amount of exposition and wordiness of its own world, there's a lot of information being portrayed in the first few chapters and the switching POV in each chapter just adds to the confusion.
I love the idea behind the world, but the power dynamics between the Shields and Sorceresses was a little uncomfortable.
