Of course, being Alexia, such bliss involves integrating werewolves into London High society, living in a vampire's second best closet, and coping with a precocious toddler who is prone to turning supernatural willy-nilly. Until, that is, she receives a summons that cannot be ignored. With husband, child, and Tunstells in tow, Alexia boards a steamer to cross the Mediterranean. But Egypt may hold more mysteries than even the indomitable Lady Maccon can handle. What does the vampire Queen of the Alexandria Hive really want from her? Why is the God-Breaker Plague suddenly expanding? And how has Ivy Tunstell suddenly become the most popular actress in all the British Empire? Timeless is the final book of the Parasol Protectorate series: a comedy of manners set in Victorian London, full of werewolves, vampires, dirigibles, and tea-drinking.

Jones narrates her own story capably, making the complex legal explanations understandable. However, she could have put a bit more drama into her reading as her story contains a lot of heartfelt accounts of running in a prison yard and the countless indignities of incarceration. This is not a full biography; it concentrates on Jones's prison term and her life afterward, including her time with the WNBA. Even so, it should satisfy anyone who wants to know how Jones's prison term changed her life.

With SOULLESS, CHANGELESS, BLAMELESS, and HEARTLESS behind her, Alexia Tarabotti, aka Lady Maccon, who was born without a soul, is enjoying her hard-won domestic tranquility. A command from the oldest living vampire queen sends Alexia's unusual extended family to Egypt to investigate some suspect clockwork intricacies and something called the God-Breaker Plague. Shrieks, sighs, and melodrama dominate. With charming silliness, Gray enlivens the undead, unearths ancient Egyptian vampires, and animates an alternate, highly original version of Victorian England. Start with Gray's impeccable narration of SOULLESS and immerse yourself into Carriger's witty world of Alexia Tarabotti and the Parasol Protectorate.
