The Bullet-Catcher's Daughter
The Bullet-Catcher's Daughter | Rod Duncan
Angry Robot Presents: The Bullet-Catchers Daughter A riotous novel of alternate history set in a divided England. The land is divided, following the Luddite revolution, into the puritan, progress-hating north and the decadent, Royalist south. Living right on the border and flitting between the two nations Elizabeth Barnabus lives a precarious double life as both herself and posing as her own brother, the daring private detective. Now she is trying to solve the mystery of a disappearing aristocrat and a hoard of arcane machines. In her way stand the rogues, freaks, and self-proclaimed inventors of a travelling alchemical circus. But when she Elizabeth up against an agent of the all-powerful Patent Office, her life and the course of history will begin to change. And not necessarily for the better... File Under: Fantasy [ Miss Taken Identity | A Country Divided | Class War | Patent Pending

An excellent start to the series. I loved Elizabeth Barnabas and found the world she inhabited to be as fantastic as it was familiar - so strange to have such familiar place names but for them to seem so alien, it was brilliantly mystifying for me. Looking forward to starting the second book!

It was a nice departure from some of the series I have been reading. Still not a fan of steampunk but willing to give the rest of the series a try.

Happy Sunday, Littens!

This week and weekend have been crazy busy, with barely any reading time, but I finally found a few minutes to get some chapters in. Now to see if I can covert those minutes to hours. 😉

That time Humble Bundle has a sci-if/fantasy ebook deal, which includes a few that you have had your eye on. 🤗

Cross-dressing! Pinkertons! Circus folk! This book is not as exciting as these things might suggest, but the heroine was pretty solid. I'd pick up the sequel if my TBR pile wasn't already threatening to collapse my bookshelf.
