(this is modified version of a comment I just left on your light reading blog). I was just on the panel that shortlisted The Explosionist for the Cybils Awards (congratulations!), and I really enjoyed it. I'm so glad it was nominated, and it was a great pleasure to make it a finalist.
As I think I am going to say in the review I think I am going to write later today, one thing I especially like is that this book is in many ways a continuation of the 20th century British tradition of plucky school girls foiling enemy plots. I was wondering if you yourself were a fan of such stories...
