pickI'm not quite sure what all this #Steampunk story was about, but I liked it.
Piccadilly is a thief. He runs, is shot and ends up on an aether ship that's manned by a very diverse crew. The ship is harvesting phlogiston.
There is some romance. There's some spice. There are monstrous sky-kraken.
The #audiobook was great, especially since most of the story is in Piccadilly's pidgin.
CarolynM I started this one ages ago but didn‘t get very far. Sounds like I should try the audio. I want to bean AH completist🙂 4d
julesG @CarolynM I'm glad I paired up ebook and audiobook. Audible offered me the audiobook for €2.95 since I already owned the eBook. 4d
julesG @CarolynM I understand the completist approach. I'm working my way through the catalogue too. Also, there's a queer Moby Dick in space retelling by AH coming next year. 4d
CarolynM Oooh, that‘s exciting. I was hoping for some more Spires stories (I think he said he was thinking about it a couple of years ago) but it looks like that‘s not going to happen☹️ 4d
julesG @CarolynM There are four so far. The next "bake off" book had its cover-reveal... I think he had to wrap up with his old publisher. It feels like a weight was lifted off his shoulders when he posts on Instagram since that was finalised. 4d
