it was ok
bookshelves: neovictorians-and-steampunk

This one had me a bit puzzled -- it's a Victorian detective romance with more than a bit of steampunk in it. It appeared to be a straight up Victorian, but weird and wonderful inventions kept popping up, as well as a heroine who evinced a desire to become an engineer (classic steampunk heroine). The characters not only had a fair bit of sex (which, after all, it is a romance novel) but also less probably bantered sexually in a way that seemed quite out of period. And the solution came out of nowhere, so that, despite the Scotland Yard officer as hero, there wasn't really a mystery.

It was a quick and enjoyable read, anyway.
