Awww.... Love, love, love. So good! Especially the last quarter of the book. It kept gaining momentum, and ended really strong. So much love for our dear Robin Shipp - and Edwin, and Duncan, and everyone else in Blashy Cove. This book took some of the Merryapple folk on an adventure to Blackrabbit Island, and things got pretty intense! O.O
I adore the world building, and Mr. Quiqley's alternate universe version of these islands off the Cornish coast. There's some steampunk elements that are very cool, and a bit of fantasy woven in there, too. And, I completely love how he bucks gender norms, giving us female doctors and butlers and lawyers, and that diversity, inclusivity, and tolerance are what's known and expected.
Another gorgeous book! I can't wait for more from this author! <3 <3 <3
