Werewolves, and Vampires, and Dirigibles, oh my!

Gail Carriger is back with another tale of the trials and tribulations of Alexia Tarabotti.  Now, I can’t give too much away about Changeless. Suffice to say that there are trips to Scotland, assassination attempts, tea — and even crumpets. And perhaps…even Blameless coming to you in September 2010!

My favorite description of Alexia comes straight to you from io9: “Great worldbuilding and delicious rapier wit that recalls Austen and P.G. Wodehouse.”  Yes!  I love it — a combination of Jane Austen, a few vampires and werewolves and Alexia — and you have the perfect tea party.

And if you haven’t had a chance yet, do check out the video of the making of Blameless!
