As usual, this was just amazing. I'm so glad she decided to focus on Jack and Jill for the first sequel because their world definitely sounded the most interesting to me and it did not disappoint. I love how Seanan has created all these little pocket worlds so that basically every fantasy scenario ever is real and especially how this particular world combines several Victorian Gothic themes [vampires, werewolves, Cthulhu, Frankenstein] into one place. Also it makes me want to go back and read the first one again since this is technically a prequel.
