Über diesen Titel

1881 - Special Agent Gillian Hamilton is a magic caster with the Federal Bureau of Magic and Steam. He’s sent to Shallow Grave, Arizona, to arrest a madman engineer known as Tinkerer, who’s responsible for blowing up half of Baltimore. Gillian has handled some of the worst criminals in the Bureau’s history, so this assignment shouldn’t be a problem. But even he’s taken aback by a run-in with the country’s most infamous outlaw, Gunner the Deadly.

Gunner is also stalking Shallow Grave in search of Tinkerer, who will stop at nothing to take control of the town’s silver mines. Neither Gillian nor Gunner are willing to let Tinkerer hurt more innocent people, so they agree to a very temporary partnership.

If facing illegal magic, Gatling gun contraptions, and a wild engineer in America’s frontier wasn’t enough trouble for a city boy, Gillian must also come to terms with the reality that he’s rather fond of his partner. But even if they live through this adventure, Gillian fears there’s no chance for love between a special agent and outlaw.

Based on the short story, "Gunner the Deadly." Entirely revised, newly expanded, and book one in the exciting new steampunk series, Magic & Steam.

First of all. I really like the set up and the world building. The main character is likeable to me and the use of magic and tech is interesting. I would have wished for more material in between the progression of the romance because in just the few chapters it feels a little rushed and sudden. It makes sense for Hamilton to fall head over heels as fast as he does but I didn't get why Gunner would return the affection just as fast. The titel and description made the book seem a little more action orientated than it was. The romance is definitely the main focus of the plot which is fine in itself. It just felt a bit out of place in certain scenes. All in all it was an okay listen. The narrator has a really soothing voice.

Good Concept with room for improvement
