" I'm giving this five stars for the lovely characters and story, even though I was sometimes confused about the plot a bit, but maybe that's because I was reading too fast. I tried to slow down, but couldn't so that's a good thing, huh? Golems and dreams, steam trains and coming-of-age confusion, scheming government officials, philosophical troubles about creation and time. New Zealand author! Thanks for the recommendation, Kelly Link. "
