Lady Mechanika, Vol. 2: The Tablet of Destinies

Pros: gorgeous artwork, fast paced story, lots of women

Cons:

Lady Mechanika returns to London in time to witness the kidnapping of Lewis' niece. Seems the girl's grandfather is part of an African expedition uncovering a long lost underground city. And within that city is the tablet of destinies, rumoured to be a powerful weapon.

Once again the artwork is incredible. It's lush and detailed.

The story's fast paced, going from one crisis or revelation to another. I enjoyed that this book had several diverse locations, and peoples.

Lady Mechanika's a fantastic protagonist. I'm impressed with the number of women the series has introduced, and the great costumes they wear (some sexy, others practical).

I'm loving this series.
