100 Word Book Review: The Affinity Bridge by George Mann

(Originally posted January 15, 2011)

My favorite comic book ever is Ruse, a steampunk style detective story; The Affinity Bridge sets up in much the same style. We have a male detective and his female assistant. He is brilliant but she is also more than competent. We have mystery, and hints of the supernatural.

Detective stories are not my usual read, but the characters and relationships were well done and believable. Considering the book labels itself “A Newbury and Hobbes Investigation” I am looking forward to seeing the main characters again and learning more about the minor characters I was just given a taste of.
