The Explosionist - Jenny Davidson Another tale mired in the morass of books found to be intolerable. It started off well enough, with the intriguing notion of an alternate Europe forever changed by Napoleon's (and not Wellington's) victory at Waterloo, but it swiftly went downhill with a convoluted plot, a heroine more annoying than relatable with her tedious crush on her teacher and her friend, Mikael, was of precious little use. And the IRYLYNS was just creepy and not really explained and did I mention CREEPY? The Aunt was a rank Hypocrite and there was not one character than I cared about one way or the other. The politics were a mess. So what? Chucked it into the The Bog, but not the rubbish pile because I honestly did not read it from start to finish. I managed close to two hundred pages, skipped to the last few chapters and then could not stand to read the remainder.
