I had this queued up to listen to immediately following Dragon Unleashed. It’s a good thing, too, since this book is a direct continuation of that story. I love Grace Draven’s writing, and this was an excellent example. Her world building is impressive with this series. Raven Unveiled is a truly thrilling conclusion!

A nice light listen with some good twists. The spice is just right. Strong narration, too.

A lovely, if dark, reimagining. Kingfisher, as always, has retold a classic tale in a fresh, inventive way. Truly captivating from start to finish. My only complaint is that I wanted more!

Neither the book nor the narration are particularly good. Some intrigue and drama at the end though.

This book is all world building with very little plot. Definitely Young Adult, though quite spicy. I made the mistake of reading the first book, then switching to audible. I did NOT enjoy this narrator.

I really enjoy these paladin books. This one started out wonderful, if a bit close to the familiar formula of the books before it. Then it took a sharp left turn and the last quarter really blew me away. AND it ended on a cliffhanger!!

Let me just start by saying: I love T. Kingfisher and will read everything she writes. With that, this book ended quite abruptly and I’m still confused and skeptical about the “source” of work blight. Here’s a piece of my review from The Clockwork Boys, since these are really two halves of the same book.

“I accidentally entered the World of the White Rat out of order- I listened to Swordheart and the first three Paladin books before this one. It does make sense to start with these two Clocktaur Wars books, but I actually do not think they are as strong as the Paladin books. Perhaps it was the narration (I listened to all of these books on audio), which wasn’t great for this duo. Perhaps I did not connect with Slate the way I did with Halla or Grace or Clara, but I felt that these two books were just a bit thin and at the same time overly convoluted. Some nice world building and generally strong characters, but a few holes and “convenient” plot devices that I couldn’t quite get with. I might not have minded so much if I had started with these, but again, I think the Paladin books are stronger.”

The Wonder Engine started well and I enjoyed the first half quite a bit. Then I got a little lost about two thirds in and couldn’t quite stick with it. The emotion of the characters and the grit of their various relationships was excellent, but the ending needed to be fleshed out.

I actually listed to Swordheart and the Paladin books before this one by accident. It was interesting to go “back to the beginning” as it were, but I miss the Temple of the White Rat. Still an excellent story, but the narration was a bit of let down. Be prepared to roll right into Wonder Engine- the two books are halves of one whole.

Fantastic second book to this series! Not quite as good as book one, but still great. Excellent narration, too.

While the plot and characters are excellent, it’s really the romance that earns this book 5 stars. The narrator wasn’t perfect, but not terrible.
