I read Dark Currents in a day & a half. The story moved along so quickly & I enjoyed seeing the characters unfold & learn more about them. I liked that this book showcased the character 'Books' giving him a chance to be seen. If I understand correctly the author plans to do this for each of the secondary characters in the coming books.
If you haven't read the first novel I would suggest starting there as you may be quite lost without the back story.
If you enjoyed Emporor's Edge you will also like Dark Currents.

The beginning is a little slow, and a bit confusing but all of that is necessary to understand the rest of the book. Plus, it picks up fast. I loved this book too! I recommend this to anyone who liked the first book. They should get these books made into movies!!! :)

I found this author quite by chance and I'm so glad I did! Her characters are intriguing, the story is imaginative, and every minute is enjoyable! Well done! I will continue to read all that she writes.

The more i read the hard it is to stop reading. I think that this series is one of the best that i have read in awhile. I only can hope that this will become a hard cover copy so that i can add it to my home library.

Everything Buroker did well in the first book, Emperor's Edge, she does even better in Dark Currents. I loved the characters even more. I was laughing throughout the entire book (Buroker has a great sense of humor). The action was just as good and the story just as interesting. I am definitely reading anything else Buroker writes.
Get this book. It will be worth it.

I loved Dark Currents. It was funny, action-packed, and character-heavy.
This is a very entertaining series so far.... and its a fraction of the cost of most books without any loss of quality writing.
One minor complaint with this book that i had with the first book, the protagonists too easily escape imprisonment... like its somewhat annoying. But aside from that, great series!

More Amaranthe scheming. Sicarius glaring and sharing and, perhaps, caring? Maldynado leching. And general highjinks. Lots of fun.

I ran across Lindsay's "ICE CRACKER" which made me want to read more of her work. The Emporer's Edge and then Dark Currents. I have thoroughly enjoyed all three of her works and am eagerly awaiting her next.
Lindsay, please right faster!

These books are just plain fun! They are well, if simply, written, well paced, nicely edited, and full of amusing dialogue. They are not masterpieces of flowery prose or huge works of great importance, just good fairly clean fun :)

I've said it before, and I'll say it again. I'm really loving steampunk stories!
This book picks up several months after the events of Emperor's Edge. Amaranthe's team are still getting to know each other, and everyone (except Amaranthe) are still deathly afraid of Sicarius.
The author does a tremendous job of creating unique personalities for her characters. I laughed many times as Amaranthe tried to get Sicarius to suppress his "assassinly" qualities. The fight scenes were well described, the machinery was completely believable, and the world Buroker created was very easy to picture.
I eagerly, and I do mean eagerly, look forward to the next in the series! Great job! Two thumbs (way the hell) up!!

Great follow up to the first book and short story. I am looking forward to the next book in the series.
