Somewhere I am failing to see the greatness of this book. I can appreciate many things but I fail to see anything other than a very detailed (too detailed) endless political plots and little else.

I've read all these 3 books and found the Ghost Pirates to be the most interesting one. The other two were quite confusing and of an overly complex storyline (and not in a good way). A visionary writer with strong skills but not for everybody.

Interesting enough

Although the book towards the end tends to improve, the overall feeling was that I was reading Harry Potter : too many elements have been taken from there and Brought here without much alteration. Also the magical system is not that well defined, it's quite ambiguous. I did however appreciate griffin's escape which would've made a great read on its own.

A pleasant read that made me envision myself in a Victorian nasty, London!

What a great read! I want to thank the author for transporting me aboard the ships toward Concordia and being part of this epic adventure!
