Imprudence by Gail Carriger

Imprudence (Custard Protocol, #2)

by Gail Carriger

From New York Times bestselling author Gail Carriger comes the stunning sequel to Prudence.

Rue and the crew of the Spotted Custard return from India with revelations that shake the foundations of England's scientific community. Queen Victoria is not amused, the vampires are tetchy, and something is wrong with the local werewolf pack. To top it all off, Rue's best friend Primrose keeps getting engaged to the most unacceptable military types.

Rue has family problems as well. Her vampire father is angry, her werewolf father is crazy, and her obstreperous mother is both. Worst of all, Rue's beginning to suspect that what they really are . . . is frightened.

It was rather well done establishing a transition away from the first series to this one. But it was a long time spent on the airship without really knowing what the baddie was. It made it feel like the plot suddenly happened in the last 20 pages.

And I was really hoping Rue would go a few more books being an adventurous woman with lots of blokes. Settling down for the first one. Phif! So much like the first series in that respect.
