À propos de cet audio

Book one in the Lancaster's Luck M/M steampunk trilogy.

When Captain Rafe Lancaster is invalided out of the Britannic Imperium's Aero Corps after crashing his aerofighter during the Second Boer War, his eyesight is damaged permanently, and his career as a fighter pilot is over. Returning to London in late November 1899, he's lost the skies he loved, has no place in a society ruled by an elite oligarchy of powerful Houses, and is hard up, homeless, and in desperate need of a new direction in life. Everything changes when he buys a coffeehouse near the Britannic Imperium Museum in Bloomsbury, the haunt of Aegyptologists. For the first time in years, Rafe is free to be himself.

In a city powered by luminiferous aether and phlogiston, and where powerful men use House assassins to target their rivals, Rafe must navigate dangerous politics, deal with a jealous and possessive ex-lover, learn to make the best coffee in London, and fend off murder and kidnap attempts before he can find happiness with the man he loves.

This book is a good background type of book with lots of attention paid to creating the world, the factions, the technology, the Victorian feel. It did feel that everything else including the light romance and slow action came 2nd to this however. A lot of telling not showing style of writing (sometimes had a very Samuel Phelps diary listing events feeling) and it certainly wasn't an exciting (or even very logical) story.. plot a bit awkwardly forced into convenient shape towards the end and there was a large cast of fairly bland characters to try and remember. But overall nothing great but nothing offensive if you feel like a stress free listen.

slow moving but good mild listening

Gary Furlong did an excellent job on this first person steampunk adventure. Anna Butler created a well-rounded believable scamp in the main character and her world building was very well done. The supporting characters were believable and well done within the genre.

Excellent performance
