About book The Kraken King, Part VIII: The Kraken King And The Greatest Adventure (2014)
What an amazing ride! Zenobia and Ariq's story is one of Meljean Brook's best steampunk adventures to date . . . and I LOVE her Iron Seas novels. It was fun from start to finish and as it turned out, I really did enjoy reading this book in serial form. Anticipation is a wonderful thing.Following Zenobia, Archimedes Fox's sister, on her airship journey to the Far East has plenty of excitement, laughter, terror and above all, romance. Ariq, the Kraken King, is a wonderful example of a great hero type with enough human frailties to make him interesting. We also get to see Archimedes and his lethal wife, Lady Corsair, in action again in the last two episodes. All in all, a thoroughly delightful read. I highly recommend this series to all who love a great romantic adventure novel. I really didn't think I was going to like reading a novel, in serialized format, but this actually worked for me, and I really enjoyed the journey. It was fun to have something to look forward to each week, and each installment was short enough to read in a day.Maybe it was the fact that this was the ending, but this installment was not my favorite. There were some developments I really enjoyed, like finally getting to see the Skybreaker, but I found this section to be too bittersweet for my taste.Overall, though, I would highly recommend the series!
