Not sure if it's because the characters are already well known to one another so no time is wasted on the build up, or if it's Mrs. Chamber's having improved in her craft, but I felt this book was a lot better written with better characters than the three previous novels in the series, which focus on an entirely different couple. While Murdo and David are enjoyable to read about in their daily doings and will have a special place in my heart, Iain and James are really a couple you want to root for and read more about. It's too bad the author didn't make this its own series and explore their side of the world a bit more, and it feels a bit of a copout to be bundled in with the rest of the Enlightenment series. Hopefully we'll see more of them in future works.
