Welcome to Litsy!

Glass and Steele are retained to search for an abducted magical mapmaker, while they continue to look for a magical watchmaker--a mystery left over from book 1. Magicians have been in hiding, subject to fierce discrimination for their talents, so nothing about their searches are easy. This is a complex mystery series that is building book by book (as is Glass and Steele's relationship). Definitely a series to continue! #serieslove2023

#two4tuesday Thanks @TheSpineView for the tag!

1) No, to me it‘s too much like gambling and I‘m far too risk averse to gamble

2) Tagged, the son of a wealthy Londoner was born and raised in America, and returns to London trying to find a magical watchmaker while being employed to search for a kidnapped magical mapmaker. Fun, right?

I‘m in a hotel for a business trip and brought a little something to do this evening while I listen to the tagged book. Another great reason to love audiobooks! I can craft to my heart‘s delight and listen to an excellent book. #serieslove2023 @TheSpineView @Andrew65

Book 1 down. Starting book 2 tomorrow. The audible deal was great: the first 3 books for 1 credit.

I enjoyed the 2nd in the series. I have a feeling I'm going to fly through this series. I enjoy the characters and the narrator. #audiobook #scribd #fantasy #historicalmystery

This series is great! Book 2 didn‘t disappoint and still has the build up to finding the allusive Kronos. I love India and Matt and their budding relationship. This series has truly helped me get out of my reading slump!

This series has been a big help with getting me outta my rut! It‘s just a good historical cozy mystery and it has kept me interested from book 1! I‘ve gotten in a good routine of listening to this each night while getting ready for bed. I‘m so close to finishing it! Just makes me feel good!

So productive while there a good book to occupy my mind. #audiocleaning

Second installment of the series.

Matthew and India are looking for a missing apprentice. They learn more about magic. Since the chemistry between the two of them is strong, India worries about Matt very often, which occasionally made me roll my eyes.

Stealthy pic of a man I just spotted in passing. Apart from the bag, he could have time travelled through the fog from Victorian London. Greatcoat, top hat, and all. He was also wearing small round spectacles.

The fog has lifted, BTW. The sun is out.

Foggy early morning walk. It's wonderful and eerie. (that's the sun in the picture)

Sitting outside for a few minutes listening to the tagged #audiobook.

#ShadowCat is sniffing at the dried stalks of catnip. It's not yet showing any new greens.

Another part of town. Another church.

I felt well enough to take the tram to my appointment and walk around on the wonderful cobblestone pavements and squares. Maybe 20min.

The #audiobook is narrated by a different person than the first one in the series. Took me about half an hour to get into it.

Horrible, horrible book! It just grabs hold of you and refuses to let go!!😱😱

I liked this book even better than the first ‘Glass and Steele‘ book. The story is less predictable, the suspense a bit stronger. Just like he first book, it‘s an easy read, but a bit more engaging.

This was book two in what appears to be an on going series. There are at least 6-7 books so far. I really enjoy the characters and the lite humor. These are not deeply intense and suspenseful, but they do draw you in. They are more like if Nancy Drew was a bit older, and a 19th century clock magician. Ned would be tall, dark, handsome, and bit roguish. The only downside is they changed the narrator on the audio version. So I read myself instead.
