Beauty and the Clockwork Beast by Nancy Campbell AllenMy rating: 2 of 5 stars
I have had good experiences with steampunk books, even blending them with other genres. So I had no problem with the blatant admission, in even just the title, that we are blending steampunk and poopular fairytale and Victorian romance to try and create a wildly trendy new series. Turns out it also blends paranormal and mystery with vampires, werewolves, ghosts, and messages from beyond that need to be deciphered in time. It just turned out to be a bit too much for one story or perhaps not done with the light touch that a "proper" Victorian romance should have.
