The Chronological Man

review 1: A fun, fast paced read with a fun protagonist. This book has a bit of a steam-punk feel and a bit of a Pulp feel. In Boston in 1890 people are disappearing in a sinister string of attacks. The mysterious Smith uses cutting edge (for the times) gadgets and elliptical problem solving to unravel the mystery. But the attacks are part of a deeper mystery that is only hinted at. Smith and his lovely assistant Miss Malone are clearly in for further adventures. I liked this one enough that I'll probably try the next one as well.
review 2: I really wanted to like this book. It had a great concept, great world building and the shell's of great characters. It was billed as adventure and action but at the end of the day I just didn't care about the characters and e... moreven at the height of the action I was looking to see how many pages were left so I could put it down. Just didn't grab me or pull me in, I didn't believe there was danger and I always knew that I was reading a book (I never was sucked in). less
