The Automaton's Treasure

2.5 stars

I'd probably like this more if I knew the characters... or understood the importance of what just happened. Might need to re-read after reading The Pirate's Wish.

Tenho sentimentos misturados sobre esse “one-shot”.

I have a feeling this story would have had more weight had I waited and read the novels first, but I wanted a taste of the author's work so I chose to read this and her other short piece, “The Witch's Betrayal,” in chronological order. She writes quite well, and I find myself intrigued by her world so far. This story just didn't engage me quite as much as the first for some reason, though.
