The Hidden Goddess by M.K. Hobson
3.0
Don't let the back of the book fool you, Mrs. Stanton does not have very much to do in this book. I keep expecting her to be behind something based on the back of the book's description, but nope.
We get a bit less Dreadnought in this installment but what we do see of him (which isn't insubstantial don't get me wrong) is pretty damn good.
I feel like there were times when M.K. Hobson was able to be a bit more subtle and take things a bit deeper. But some spots were still a bit pulpy, let's not play. I feel like this book might have gotten more attention if it had vampires, or steamy sex scenes or both. So it was kind of refreshing that there weren't any of those things.
For the added subtlety there is also equal amounts of hammering it home. But I am a-ok with that. Also really Hobson, did you go out of your way to add the hardest to pronounce names of things?
Characters with real flaws, exciting plot and magic abound. And I approve.
