THE BACK COVER:
The Friday Society follows the stories of three intelligent and talented assistants to power men: Cora, lab assistant, Michiko, combat instruction assistant, and Nellie, Magician's assistant. Their lives become inexorably intertwined after a chance meeting at a ball ends with the discovery of a murdered mystery man. It's up to these three, in their own charming but bold way, to solve the murder-and the crimes they believe may be connected to it-without calling too much attention to themselves. Of course, blending in has never been these ladies' strong suit, especially with so many eligible men around.
Told with Adrienne Kress's sharp wit and a great deal of irreverence, this Steampunk mystery introduces three unforgettable and very ladylike-well, relatively ladylike-heroines poised for more dangerous adventures.
THE REVIEW:
The book is wonderfully written, and is a book you can't put down. However, that being said, this book has language, and is not for kids. If you are a parent, I'd suggest you'd read this first before letting your kid read it.
AGES: 14+ (at least)

Another book I have never heard of before, although I am much more of a film guy than book. As always, excellent review.
