![]() ![]() I was a little disappointed that the rotters (read: zombies) aren’t around very much. It’s not a direct sequel but it does take place in the same book world and at the very end a few characters overlap. It’s been a while since I read Boneshaker but I do think Dreadnought may actually be a little better. The performance was so pitch perfect that I’ll continue with the series on audio. I wasn’t sure how she’d handle the steampunk action that I expected. Reading’s narration but I’ve only listened to her reading fiction that is more directly targeted to women. When I realized that Kate Reading was the narrator, I wasn’t quite sure what to think. I downloaded it on audio but read the first in print. I really enjoyed Boneshaker so I had high hopes for this book. Duty and curiosity win out and she sets out via dirigible and then train to hopscotch her way across the country. That’s quite a trek away from Richmond, Virginia, especially given the state of the country. Shortly after she receives word that he died in a POW camp, she receives a telegram notifying her that her long-estranged father is very sick and asking for her to come see him in Tacoma, Washington. She’s a nurse for the Confederacy but her husband is a soldier in the Union. ![]() Like many people, she has torn loyalties. Mercy Lynch is a nurse in the Civil War, which has been lingering on for decades. ![]()
