Resumen del Editor

Quitting her husband's house and moving back in with her horrible family, Lady Maccon becomes the scandal of the London season.

Queen Victoria dismisses her from the Shadow Council, and the only person who can explain anything, Lord Akeldama, unexpectedly leaves town. To top it all off, Alexia is attacked by homicidal mechanical ladybugs, indicating, as only ladybugs can, the fact that all of London's vampires are now very much interested in seeing Alexia quite thoroughly dead.

While Lord Maccon elects to get progressively more inebriated and Professor Lyall desperately tries to hold the Woolsey werewolf pack together, Alexia flees England for Italy in search of the mysterious Templars. Only they know enough about the preternatural to explain her increasingly inconvenient condition, but they may be worse than the vampires - and they're armed with pesto.

Blameless is the third book of the Parasol Protectorate series: a comedy of manners set in Victorian London, full of werewolves, vampires, dirigibles, and tea drinking.

An Endlessly Entertaining Writer

I think very few authors are so whimsical, so literary, and writes with such quality. If you wanted a novel of manners that is fun and well written, this is for you. Emily Gray is a fantastic reader. I would highly recommend this novel, or any other in the series.

suggestion

the reading break between chapters made me think 🤔 that the application stopped. I not sure why there was suck a long pause ⏯️ but it pulled me out of the story.

Enjoyable

I enjoyed most of this book as it took place racing across France and then dealing with the Templars in Italy. However, I did not like the way Lord Maccon behaved and the way it basically obliterated Alexia’s work and personal life. The groveling from the man was nowhere near sufficient. But the adventure part was fun and the audiobook narration was good, so I can recommend “Blameless” overall. I am continuing the series with the hope that the next book is better.

Delightful!

There are so many characters that I get confused and back up the story to replay. But the story and characters are absolutely wonderful. The humor reminds me of British comedies I grew up with. I love everything about this story.

The saga continues

I will be sad when this series comes to an end....they are becoming old friends. This is kinda a bridge book, one that moves you along the story line. Not a whole lot of action/interaction, but one in which the minor characters,that we met before, take on a bit more depth. Predictable but fun....looking forward to number 4.

Love the Banter

The descriptions and banter between characters is so funny. I love the writing of these novels. They would do really well as a TV or movie series.

ROYALLY TOTALLY ACCEPTIONAL

This series of books are quite tentilating and center of my day and night I thoroughly enjoy reading and listening to the narrator THOROUGHLY.

Mom Kat Reads

I greatly enjoyed listening to this audiobook. as with the previous two in the series, the narrator has done a fantastic job with keeping each of the characters' voices seperate and distinct, allowing the listener to simply sit back and enjoy the story without confusion or difficulty.

The story itself was well told & entertaining, with quite a few moments that made me either want to laugh at the actions taking place, or scold the characters for those same actions.

All in all, I foubd this to be avery enjoyable audiobook & look forward to listening tp the next one in the series.

Another great story!

I was waiting to find out what happened with the loving couple that had been pulled apart, and Gail didn't disappoint! This book again struck a great balance in action, intrigue, and a British posh attitude. If you like the first two, you will love this one!

so charming

such a fun series. fast paced, made me laugh out loud on more than one occasion
