Blameless/Gail Carriger

Blameless (The Parasol Protectorate, book 3), by Gail Carriger; fantasy, romance, scifi; 384 pages

I was a little disappointed by Changeless, the second book in this series, but I was please to see that Carriger seems to have recovered herself here. Lady Alexia Maccon, after being cast out by her husband, causing quite the scandal in London, and being marked for death by every vampire in England, sets out for Italy in hopes of finding out more about her preternatural state. There's much more adventure and travel here than in the previous book, and the separation between the main couple means that the romance continues to play a strong role (pretty impressive, given that they were married in the first book!). I loved this, and read it very quickly. I was also pleased to note that there will be a fourth volume coming out next summer!
