Timeless (Carriger novel)
Timeless is a steampunk paranormal romance novel by Gail Carriger. Released on February 28, 2012, by Orbit Books, Timeless is the fifth and final book in the New York Times best-selling "The Parasol Protectorate" series, each featuring Alexia Tarabotti, a woman without a soul, as its lead character. Plot
Blending steampunk with urban fantasy, Timeless is set in an alternate history version of Victorian era Britain where vampires and werewolfs are welcomed as members of society, often in the upper class. The protagonist of the novel is Alexia Tarabotti, the Lady Maccon, who is "soulless", and thus unaffected by the powers of supernatural beings. Two years have passed peacefully, or as peacefully can be expected in a household with an alpha werewolf husband and a toddler who is apt to turn hairy at inconvenient moments. The peace ends abruptly when Alexia is summoned to Alexandria to face their ancient vampire queen. Now everyone in Alexia's sphere – human, supernatural, or dead; in London, Scotland, or Egypt – must solve the mystery of the God-Breaker Plague. Publication history
