Gilded Wolves ~ Roshani Chokshi

Paris, 1889: The world is on the cusp of industry and power, and the Exposition Universelle has breathed new life into the streets and dredged up ancient secrets. In this city, no one keeps tabs on secrets better than treasure-hunter and wealthy hotelier, Séverin Montagnet-Alarie. But when the all-powerful society, the Order of Babel, seeks him out for help, Séverin is offered a treasure that he never imagined: his true inheritance. To find the ancient artifact the Order seeks, Séverin will need help from a band of experts: An engineer with a debt to pay. A historian who can't yet go home. A dancer with a sinister past. And a brother in all but blood, who might care too much. Together, they'll have to use their wits and knowledge to hunt the artifact through the dark and glittering heart of Paris. What they find might change the world, but only if they can stay alive.

 

Oh my goodness! When starting this book I totally got a Six of Crows vibes from it. Not that it is a bad thing. I really enjoyed that duet. But this is turning out to be so much more than that series. I thoroughly enjoyed every single character in this book. Zofia and Laila! Tristan, Enrique and Severin. Hell I even ended up liking Hypnos! Which I totally was not expecting. Each character had very distinct personalities and all seemed to fit very well. This is very much a book about a band of misfits. This is a very evenly paced book with lots of action and suspense. In my opinion at least. That ending though....give me book two!!! This is an ARC review!
