Beskrivning
It's one thing to waltz properly.It's quite another to waltz properly with a bladed fan stitched into one's corset.Sophronia continues finishing school in style - with a range of deadly defences secreted in the folds of her ball gown, of course. Her fashionable choice of weapons comes in handy when Sophronia, her best friend Dimity, sweet sootie Soap and the charming Lord Felix Mersey hijack a suspiciously empty train to return their chum Sidheag to her werewolf pack in Scotland. But when Sophronia discovers they are being trailed by a dirigible of Picklemen and flywaymen, she unearths a plot that threatens to throw all of London into chaos. With her friends in mortal danger, Sophronia must sacrifice what she holds most dear - her freedom. Gather your poison, your steel-tipped quill, and the rest of your school supplies and join Mademoiselle Geraldine's proper young killing machines in the third rousing instalment of the New York Times bestselling Finishing School series.

Mer om författaren

New York Times bestselling author Gail Carriger writes to cope with being raised in obscurity by an expatriate Brit and an incurable curmudgeon. She escaped small town life and inadvertently acquired several degrees in Higher Learning. Ms Carriger then travelled the historic cities of Europe, subsisting entirely on biscuits secreted in her handbag. She resides in the Colonies, surrounded by fantastic shoes, where she insists on tea imported from London.

Recensioner i media

Absolutely charming, comical, and full of whimsy. I wish I could attend a school as fun as this finishing academy, with its host of endearing, headstrong characters. It is the perfect steampunk version of Harry Potter

Betyg & recensioner

4 recensioner, genomsnitt 4.5/5

  1. 5/5 Fredrika

    Underbart skrivet av en bra författare! Rekommenderar att läsa böckerna innan i trilogin innan du läser denna ;) Hon har även skrivit Soulless serien som jag personligen älskar.

  2. 4/5 Storläsar'n

    Action, humor, krinoliner, vampyrer, varulvar och massor av kreativitet. Det här blir man glad av, oavsett ålder. Nå... Lite barnasinne ska man ju ha förstås. Men det har du väl, eller..?
