Negative Positive
Title: Excessively Long and Pretentious
Review: I relish books with alternative history themes, settings in the 19th century, and touches of magic. This book contains all of those, yet I did not enjoy it at all. I found it ponderous and dull and the characters thoroughly unengaging. I was quite disappointed in it, and I don't believe I will read any of this author's work again.
