Elliott, Kate -- Cold Fire
Girls' Own Adventure, part two. The protagonist falls straight into
fairyland, which ought to be a hint that this book is immoderate in
its pursuit of awesome. (Most of the storyline takes place in
Hispaniola rather than fairyland, but only because zombies and soccer
are more awesome than fairies.) Our heroine drinks, screws, escapes
zombies, punches a shark in the snoot, does not quite start or prevent
a revolution, and copes with Napoleon and the Wild Hunt, not
necessarily in that order. To be fair, this book has more romance
formula than the previous volume, but I was okay with it. We also find
out what ice mages are the opposite of -- fire mages, unsurprisingly,
but the details are nice. Lawyer dinosaurs remain a favorite.
