Soulless by Gail Carriger

A little romance, a little paranormal, a little Victorian...a lot of fun!

In an alternate version of Victorian England, a bluestocking named Alexia Tarabotti becomes entangled with werewolves, vampires, mad scientists, ghosts and several tea carts on an accidental quest to save the kingdom.Β 

And if you think that sounds odd, wait until you get to the fourth book in the series...when she's battling zombie porcupines.

It may sound like madness, but I assure you it's the kind of madness that will keep you turning pages well past bedtime. Soulless is the first book in the Parasol Protectorate series by Gail Carriger, and it perfectly combines history, love, adventure, fantasy with just the right amount of humor.Β

If you're intrigued and have an e-reader, you can find the first three books in the series-- Soulless, Changeless, and Blameless-- in a bundle for only $9.99. The fourth book, Heartless, was just released and is just as fantastic and entertaining as its predecessesors. You can also follow the author on Twitter, where she's known for posting interesting links on Victorian history and steampunk jewelry, not to mention interacting very kindly with her fans.
