About this listen
Bookish and proper Percival Tunstell finds himself out of his depth when floating cities, spirited plumbing, and soggy biscuits collide in this delightful conclusion to NYT best-selling author Gail Carriger's Custard Protocol series.
Percival Tunstell loves that his sister and her best friend are building themselves a family of misfits aboard their airship, the Spotted Custard. Of course, he'd never admit that he belongs among them. He's always been on the outside - dispassionate, aloof, and hatless. But accidental spies, a trip to Japan, and one smart and beautiful doctor may have him renegotiating his whole philosophy on life.
Except hats. He's done with hats. Thank you very much.

Critic reviews
"Carriger maintains a droll, tongue-in-cheek tone, and her protagonists are as concerned with witty banter and fashionable hats as they are with fighting for their lives. Series fans will enjoy this mischievous romp, which revisits old favorites while raising a new crop of charming characters." (Publishers Weekly on Prudence)
"The author's humor and affection for her outlandish characters is always appealing. A fun launch." (Library Journal on Prudence)
"Blending steampunk and urban fantasy in a colorful alternate Victorian England, Carriger presents a grand cast of characters on a harrowing adventure that stretches from England to India.... Filled with lavish fashions, supernatural high society, and witty dialogue, this story is a fine introduction to a fabulous new series." (Booklist on Prudence)
Thank you Miss Gail!

we get to see multiple characters from previous books even some smaller ones including Bumbersnoot.
the writing as usual is to a very high standard as to be expected with Gail Carriger no I would say this would be an immensely difficult book to get into for a newbie in the series. the ending is quite wonderful, leaving still a lot of space for more well at the same time rounding out the story in a way that it feels like we are leaving all the characters in a great place to carry on with the adventurous even without us.
A great end to multiple Series

This is the last book in the 4 part Custard Protocol series, a steam punk extravaganza where a group of characters travel the world. It will make more sense if you read the others first as there are character developments and storyline that flow through them all.
This series follows on from the Finishing School series, and Soulless series both of which are brilliant but can be read separately and characters from each appear in this series and a lot show up in this book. You don't have to read those first but it feels so good to meet up with these wonderful friends.
Extraordinary Adventures and marvelous characters

I can however guarantee if you read this series you will want to read the others so be warned, this will cause an obsessive need for more insight into this world.
It just gets better and better
