I LOVED this book. The combination of steampunky Clanker machines and genetically altered Darwinist animals really make it unique. It's an apt description of what might have happened if people had discovered genetic engineering (a science that we have still not been able to perfect) several centuries early. You would normally expect a plot like this to be set in the far future, but instead, it takes place right at the beginning of the First World War, which makes it all the better. Oh, by the way, have you noticed that people actually put NOTICES on this book? Ridiculous.
