In 1897 London, something not quite human is about to awaken
When mechanical genius Emily is kidnapped by rogue automatons, Finley Jayne and her fellow misfits fear the worst. What's left of their archenemy, The Machinist, hungers to be resurrected, and Emily must transplant his consciousness into one of his automatons—or forfeit her friends' lives.
With Griffin being mysteriously tormented by the Aether, the young duke's sanity is close to the breaking point. Seeking help, Finley turns to Jack Dandy, but trusting the master criminal is as dangerous as controlling her dark side. When Jack kisses her, Finley must finally confront her true feelings for him...and for Griffin.
Meanwhile, Sam is searching everywhere for Emily, from Whitechapel's desolate alleyways to Mayfair's elegant mansions. He would walk into hell for her, but the choice she must make will test them more than they could imagine.
To save those she cares about, Emily must confront The Machinist's ultimate creation—an automaton more human than machine. And if she's to have any chance at triumphing, she must summon a strength even she doesn't know she has....
My Review:
I loved, loved this book! It was great, interesting, and it was set in this great world, with these great characters, that I just love! Plus this book, is Emily's, on the cover, being one one who gets kidnapped, and yeah, fighting the Machinist again, hopefully for the last time!!!
So yeah, there's lots of conflict, because there's the whole Emily getting kidnapped thing, and then Griffin is yeah, getting tormented by the dark shadow things from Clockwork Collar, things under The Machinist's control.
Plus dealing with the weirdness that is The Machinist's creation, Mila, and how she slowly grows more and more human, and less machine. And yeah, that journey that she starts to go on, it's pretty incredible, and yeah, I hope we get to see more of her (which I think we will!!!)
Oh, did I love the ending! I mean, well, yeah, Finley and Griffin are together, and yeah, it was so sweet, and after all the times that they got interrupted, just hilarious, and that they had to go down to locking the doors to make sure they had privacy? Yeah, it was a really, really great ending!
Such a great book, and yeah, can't wait to read more!!!!
