Resumen del Editor

Audie Award Nominee, Science Fiction, 2013

In a time when the Industrial Revolution has escalated into all-out warfare, Mad Science rules the world… with mixed success.

With the help of Krosp, Emperor of All Cats, Agatha has escaped from the massive airship known as Castle Wulfenbach. After crashing their escape dirigible, Agatha and Krosp fall in with Master Payne’s Circus of Adventure, a traveling troupe of performers dedicated to staging Heterodyne shows - dramatizations of the exploits of Bill and Barry Heterodyne and their allies - who are unaware of Agatha’s connection to the Heterodyne line.

Pursued by the ruthless Baron Klaus Wulfenbach, his handsome son Gil, and their minions (not to mention Othar Tryggvassen, Gentleman Adventurer), Agatha hides in plain sight among the circus folk, servicing their clanks and proving herself adept in performing the role of Lucrezia Mongfish, nemesis to - and later wife of - Bill Heterodyne. She also begins training under Zeetha, swordmistress and princess of the lost city of Skifander. Together, Agatha, Krosp, and the performers travel across the treacherous Wasteland of war-torn Europa, toward Mechanicsburg, and the ancestral home of the Heterodynes - Castle Heterodyne.

But with many perils standing in her way - including Wulfenbach’s crack troops, mysterious Geisterdamen, savage Jägermonsters, and the fabled Storm King - it’s going to take more than a spark of Mad Science for Agatha to get through.…

From Phil and Kaja Foglio, creators of the multiple WCCA and Hugo Award-winning webcomic Girl Genius, comes Agatha H and the Clockwork Princess, a gaslamp fantasy filled to bursting with Adventure! Romance! And Mad Science!

Wonderful Escapism

As a fan of Girl Genius in several of its iterations. I have to say that the actress used in this book was the best choice! I loved everything about the "retelling" of the story I enjoy. I plan to revisit this audiobook the way that I reread the books.

Great Book...but not the Comic.

I love Girl Genius, and the audio books are very fun. I can't help feeling, though, that they're bland. Girl Genius is about over the top, crazy as cats mad scientists and monsters. It uses Dramatic Fonts and many Exclamation Points. The audio books take a more... normal tone. Voices are not raised. No one cackles. No harmonics send chills down your spine.

The narrator is good, but it feels like she's reading from something with dots, not bangs, and no italics or bold. It doesn't ruin things, it just tones them down, a lot.

Steampunk at it's best!

Loved it! Left me wanting the next book now. The Foglio's smashed this one out of the park. The reader was spot on! I am impressed!

Great story, terrible app, never using it again

What would have made Agatha H. and the Clockwork Princess better?

Actually being able to download it to one of my devices after purchase would have been stellar.

How did the narrator detract from the book?

The vocal fry and flat affect were both very distracting in the tiny bit of my purchase I actually got to listen to, but both are typical of Audio.

You didn’t love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities?

The story is great but I only know this from the Kindle edition. It refused to download on any of my devices - $18 well wasted.

Any additional comments?

Just to reiterate, Audio sucks and I'm not using it again without some serious improvements.

If you like the comic, you'll like the book! :) Great narration & great story. Follows volumes four through six of the comic.

A fun romp.

Fun look into a world that could have been.
Super science and action, only Jackson could make the movie.

better than the first

oddly, I missed some of the goofiness of the first novel but thoroughly enjoyed this one. Only 4 stars because someone should have caught the many mispronounced words and fixed them in post production.
