Sherlock + Cthulhu is a very Gaimanishly Gothic mix.
Woop, amazing stuff! Haven't really read Sanderson apart from Alcatraz (which was annoying af), and this short story was so good!
Wow. It's not only the soulstamp concept that drew me in, it's the mechanics of plausibly altering the past, and the basic assumption that everything has a soul, an understanding of self, and a dream. Love it.
Eh, I found one or two of them okay, but most didn't do anything for me.
Jazz vampires. Would be five stars (for wit, and tugging at heart strings, and great descriptions) if I wasn't so irritated by the stereotyping. It's not bad, it might even be accurate and non-invasive, but I can't say, 'cause I'm not from London, so I'm mildly uncomfortable.
Magic develops further, and we get an entire new race below London. Still very witty, and I just cannot resist a "magic underground in London" story.
Ohh, I like this. Inner-city architecture meets black mages meets WW2 mages.
Peter leaves London. We get more Beverley, more country, more unicorns, and a bit of Lesley. Still a fan. Sooo lovely. And still with the non-hetero-white-male characters everywhere.
Still more Peter Grant, with character development and BOSS FIGHT and new practitioners and cool characters and snark and ♥
Oh yes, definitely the dystopic tale I needed without knowing it. Nicely done.
After the first book was so self-contained and the second is so very separate, I did not expect the cliffhanger in the end. I, again, love the female protagnoist a lot, although her companion is overpowered. Looking forward to the next part.
Woop! I like the slightly-older Flavia, who is more devious, and still terribly clever. Also, evil cliffhanger.
