Glass and Steele Boxed Set: Books 1-3

De: C.J. Archer

Narrado por: Emma Powell, Marian Hussey

This boxed set contains three books in the USA Today best-selling Glass and Steele series:

• The Watchmaker's Daughter.
• The Mapmaker's Apprentice.
• The Apothecary's Poison.

India Steele is desperate. Her father is dead, her fiancé took her inheritance, and no one will employ her, despite years working for her watchmaker father. Indeed, the other London watchmakers seem frightened of her. Alone, poor, and at the end of her tether, India takes employment with the only person who’ll accept her–an enigmatic and mysterious man from America. A man who possesses a strange watch that rejuvenates him when he’s ill.

Matthew Glass must find a particular watchmaker, but he won’t tell India why any old one won’t do. Nor will he tell her what he does back home, and how he can afford to stay in a house in one of London’s best streets. So when she reads about an American outlaw known as the Dark Rider arriving in England, she suspects Mr. Glass is the fugitive. When danger comes to their door, she’s certain of it. But if she notifies the authorities, she’ll find herself unemployed and homeless again–and she will have betrayed the man who saved her life.

With a cast of quirky characters, an intriguing mystery, and a dash of romance, this thrilling historical fantasy series will keep you listening late into the night.

consistency, very convoluted, entertaining

This is pure entertainment and very enjoyable because of it.
Many time period discrepancies, but they don't detract from the story, they increase the escapism aspect.
Thanks awfully to the author for their bravery and talent.
I am sure I will read again.

good enough

a nice story, a bit of mystery but in a slooow way. the storyline is similar in every book. Just when you think that something will happen that will give the story a faster pace you are dissapointed.

I love everything!

This a great series. I enjoyed listening to them so much that I can’t wait for my next credit so I’m just going to buy the next book.

Great mix of old English charm and fantasy

A wonderful set of characters with some intriguing mysteries thrown in. A great series. India and Matt have a slow simmering chemistry that is sweet like taffy.

Awesome

Great flow and storyline! Can’t wait to finish the series, as nd digging deeper into C.j. Archers other writings.
