#67 The Somnambulist by Jonathan Barnes
I got this as part of Harper Collins First Look program. http://www.harpercollins.com/Members/FirstLook/index.aspx Harper also does several newsletter that I read so I can keep with the new releases if any of you are interested.
This is what I posted for them. With the clever twist of who the narrator is along with his occasional breaking of the fourth wall and speaking directly to the reader this was a fun romp and made for a nice change of pace. The ending left room for a sequel but it also isn’t necessary. I enjoyed it and will be recommending it to my friends.
That being that being said I don't know if everyone on my friends list will care for it. There is a touch of a steampunk feel to it but not overwhelming. I did enjoy it but not enought to run out and force my friends to read it.
