Independent reviewer for Archaeolibrarian, I was gifted my copy of this book. 4 years ago, Sebastian stole The Wayward Prince from a young man called Ren. Now, Rem is back and offering Sebastian and his crew a job. Can Sebastian and Ren part again, with their hearts intact? This is book two in the Mind + Machine series, and I would personally recommend you read book one, Machine Metal Magic, first. Jaime and Rylan plays a huge part here and there is some references to their story. Not necessary just a personal recommendation. I really enjoyed this one! It's a great follow up to book one. Not quite a five star read but so very nearly! It's also quite difficult to write a review for this book without giving anything away! There are plot twists all over, and I did not see a single one coming me! And the slightest slip up on my part would spoil that experience for someone else. So, this may well be very vague! Loved Sebastian. He thinks he's a bad egg but really has a heart of gold. He loves his ship and his on-board family, waifs and strays he's picked up, or indeed, they've picked Sebastian up. And Ren? Well let's just say he's a sweetheart, and he wants to do right by everyone, even to his own heartbreak. But loved his solution to that heartbreak! Loved the hints that come about each crew member's history! So many stories to tell, those people! It's told from both men's point of view so we get it all from both of them and you know how happy that makes me feel! Oh do you know what? I can't find anything wrong with this so . . . . 5 full stars. **same worded review will appear elsewhere**
