Murder on the Titania and Other Steam-Powered Adventures by Alex Acks

4.0

I've become quite fond of the linked short stories style of tale. There's just something extra lovely in the flow and it definitely worked here. I found this to be a delightful novel, as it was the mannerly, quirky, clever type of steampunk -- with a pirate! The mystery element was always present, if not always strong, since this seemed to be more about the characters and setting than the plot. That works perfectly fine for me, as I'm definitely a character reader.

For those who've read the Alex Wells books, the author's tone is very different here. In a way it reminded me of late 80s, early 90s in how it felt and sounded, though certainly with updates for the modern day.

Anywho, I definitely recommend it as an enjoyable adventure!
