YAMonstrumologist series.
In their third (and darkest) adventure, Pellinore Warthrop and Will Henry's hunt for the Magnificum takes the monstrumologist and his apprentice to the Socotra, the Isle of Blood. Along the way they dodge spies, befriend literary icons, and test the boundaries of their complex relationship. One final book should bring the series--a wonderful mix of period fiction and gothic horror--to a satisfying conclusion.
