A review by justabean_reads
Death by Silver by Amy Griswold, Melissa Scott

4.0

Very enjoyable romance/mystery/gaslight fantasy that set up a lived-in world with interesting magical developments and a lot of historical flavour. I really liked the romance (which was of the two stoic idiots in love variety) and the inclusion of queer cultures at the time, and having various characters feel differently about it. Having a sub culture of women's magic was also cool. Solidly researched bit of Victoriana.

I don't think I was that invested in the outcome of the mystery, though my second choice for who done it did do it. I did like the characters' emotional investment in it. Will check out the next one.

The audiobook was terrible, with lots of editing issues and background noise.
