Set in the same world as the Parasol Protecorate, the YA series is filled with all the saucy adventure and droll humor Gail Carriger's legions of fans have come to adore.
In her alternate England of 1851, fifteen-year-old Sophronia tries to uncover who is behind a plot to control a prototype that has the potential to alter human and supernatural travel, and to learn what role Mademoiselle Geraldine's academy for young spies plays in the affair.

COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Good continuation of the series submitted by wellscai on August 10, 2018, 10:05pm Sophronia's adventures continue, and get a little darker, in this continuation of the Finishing School Series. I liked that the stakes seemed to be a bit higher than before, and that Sophronia and her group of friends seem to be maturing and settling into their schooling as "intellegencers." I was less of a fan of the love triangle, and would have preferred to have that perpetual YA cliche left out of the plot, but overall found this to be a very enjoyable read.

Fantastic continuation submitted by Princess Cimorene on July 21, 2021, 12:12pm This series is so much fun and book two does not disappoint. I like the arc of both characters and plot in each individual book and the series as a whole.
