Clockwork Boys by T. Kingfisher

What the hell, 5 stars.
Some very witty, amusing and sarcastic banter in this very entertaining yarn. Not my usual genre, but I thought I'd give it a go. And I'm glad I did, they say sarcasm is the lowest form of wit, but wit nonetheless. Just like The Dirty Dozen, except there’s only four of them, and they're not soldiers, but apart from that exactly the same, well with some other niggly inconsistencies, but apart from those exactly the same. The butcher, the baker, the candlestick maker, no hang on I got that wrong, the knight, the forger, assassin, the scholar, there we go. Well anyway, I enjoyed it, give it a go you might be surprised, I was.
