Soulless: The Manga, Vol. 1 by Gail Carriger
Buffy meets Jane Austen in the first book of this wickedly funny NYT bestselling series about a young woman whose brush with the supernatural leads to a deadly investigation of London's high society. Alexia Tarabotti is laboring under a great many social tribulations. First, she has no soul. Second, she's a spinster whose father is both Italian and dead. Third, she was rudely attacked by a vampire, breaking all standards of social etiquette. Where to go from there? From bad to worse apparently, for Alexia accidentally kills the vampire -- and then the appalling Lord Maccon (loud, messy, gorgeous, and werewolf) is sent by Queen Victoria to investigate. With unexpected vampires appearing and expected vampires disappearing, everyone seems to believe Alexia responsible. Can she figure out what is actually happening to London's high society? Will her soulless ability to negate supernatural powers prove useful or just plain embarrassing? Finally, who is the real enemy, and do they have treacle tart? Soulless is the first book of the Parasol Protectorate series: a comedy of manners set in Victorian London, full of werewolves, vampires, dirigibles, and tea-drinking.Gail Carriger, a New York Times bestselling author, writes to cope with growing up in obscurity as the daughter of an exiled Brit and an incurable curmudgeon. She abandoned small-town life and mistakenly earned numerous degrees from colleges and universities. Carriger then journeyed around Europe's famous cities, surviving solely on cookies stashed in her handbag. She lives in the Colonies, surrounded by amazing shoes, and she only drinks tea from London.
