A review by blatanville
Arabella of Mars by David D. Levine
4.0
A terrific book. More like 4½ ⭐s.
Take a Regency England-era colony, stir in Edgar Rice Burroughs's Barsoom, some RL Stevenson (I'm thinking "Kidnapped'), a bit of pre-steampunk (coal punk?), and an interesting, believable main character, good supporting characters, and voila! An adventure novel with brains and heart that teens and adults should enjoy.
I look forward to reading the sequels.
