New York Times bestselling author Gail Carriger writes to cope with being raised in obscurity by an expatriate Brit and an incurable curmudgeon. She escaped small town life and inadvertently acquired several degrees in Higher Learning. Ms. Carriger then traveled the historic cities of Europe, subsisting entirely on biscuits secreted in her handbag. She resides in the Colonies, surrounded by fantastic shoes, where she insists on tea imported from London. The Parasol Protectorate books are: Soulless, Changeless, Blameless, Heartless, and Timeless. Soulless won the ALA's Alex Award. A manga adaptation released in Spring 2012 and a young adult series set in the same universe -- the Finishing School series -- launched in Spring 2013. Gail is soon to begin writing a new adult series, The Parasol Protectorate Abroad (2015).
""Soulless is a character-driven romp with great worldbuilding and delicious rapier wit that recalls Austen and P.G. Wodehouse.""--io9.com on Soulless ""A delightfully fun supernatural comedy of manners, with a refreshing romance thrown in - and a highly promising first novel.""--Locus on Soulless ""Carriger's Parasol Protectorate series beautifully blends together alternate history, steampunk and paranormal romance into stories that are witty, engaging and fun.""--Kirkus on Timeless ""Delivers what readers have come to expect: witty style paired with globe-spanning Victorian derring-do.""--RT Book Reviews on Timeless ""Readers will undoubtedly be content with how this charming series wraps up.""--SciFi Now on Timeless ""Spectacular debut novel...a real page-turner.""--RT Book Reviews on Soulless ""The world of Timeless is a unique recipe of steampunk and fantasy spiced with light sprinkling of romance. Its setting is rich for characters to romp about in, but the unbridled playfulness of the language and dialogue shines brightest.""--Miami Herald on Timeless
