Gail Carriger - Any info?

I've seen this authors books coming up on Orbit and was wondering if anyone had tried them

Alexia Tarabotti
1. Soulless (2009)
2. Changeless (2010)
3. Blameless (2010)
4. Heartless (2011)
5. Timeless (2012

Sounded a little bit different

Yes, I've read all but the one not out yet and found them very enjoyable. They're light, fun reads.

I've read them all but the one not out yet and I second murphy's comments.

Re: Gail Carriger - Any info?

Well Ive finally got this read and now got a review written on my blog --

http://croftfantasyreads.blogspot.co...-carriger.html

I was pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed this book and do intend to read more in the series. Quite a few already written too

I was a little confused though as to how Alexia could be considered Soulless, she seemed to have plenty of morals for a soulless creature

They remind me a bit of Elizabeth Peters' Amelia Peabody and her husband. I find them very amusing.

Re: Gail Carriger - Any info?

Ive recently finished reading Changeless. I was really enjoying the relationship between Alexia and Conall, they seem to work so well together. Not sure, after the end, how this series will progress.

Anyone read book 3 - can you give me an idea
