“Changeless” is the second book in the steampunk series “Parasol protectorate” written by Gail Carriger. The series follows Alexia Tarabotti a preternatural, a creature able to turn supernatural creatures human while she touches them, in Victorian England.

Life has been easier since Alexia’s and Lord Maccon marriage as well as Alexia’s designation as muhjah in the council. However the situation will not be hold for too long when a sudden “normality” plague attack the city exorcizing all the ghost and turning vampires and werewolves normal. As she is the only preternatural in the London area, she becomes the prime suspect. Apart from that Lord Maccon would have to travel to Scotland since his original Alpha’s pack has been killed.

“Changeless” was an interesting book. I really liked the mystery and how the plot is really well developed so in the end everything ends up making sense. I really like the interactions between Lord Maccon and Alexia; I think they are really funny together since they tend to forget a lot about the rest when they speak to each other. I was not really sure about the new character added in this book to the story, the hat maker, Madame Lefoux but I ended up liking her just right.

I really thought though that the first book was a lot more captivating and fast paced that this one, but I still liked it. And because of the cliff-hanging ending I had to jump right into the next book.

To sum up, I really enjoyed this second book in the series and I will, of course, keep going reading it.
