I feel terrible, but I read fully half and then just couldn't go on. I was so bored! Almost every conversation was cringingly lifeless! 😩 😭

Man, I loved this book so much! I randomly found it at a secondhand store and thought it looked interesting, and took it on summer holiday - so glad I did. An amazing adventure travelling the world, fascinating to read about the different people and experiences she and her husband had, and the massive variety between each one. Highly recommend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
This murder mystery takes place during a crime writers festival on a luxury train traveling through the Australian outback. It was highly entertaining and more than a little meta, as the narrator outlines the rules of writing a mystery while explaining the deadly events that take place on the train. I didn't realize it was a sequel but it didn't seem to matter--I will definitely pick up the first book in the near future!
This book has left me stumped. I don‘t quite know whether it is steampunk / fantasy / eco warning or horror and I was left vaguely dissatisfied. The writing especially the descriptions of the ‘wastelands‘ was stunning and the sense of place on the train hurtling then creating through this otherworldly was great but the characters were a little two dimensional for me and following several split rather than added to a sense of what was happening!
I thoroughly enjoyed this one — steam trains, dwarves, terrorism, all handled deftly by Moist von Lipwig. Great characters, including the train Iron Girder.

“I know we have what might be called an unconventional marriage, what with our jobs and the pressure of work and so on, but I wouldn't be doing my wifely duty if I didn't ask you whether you have been firkydoodling with fast and loose women? No pressure. Answer in your own time.”
😂 “Firkydoodling” is hereby added to my vocabulary.
