![]() ![]() It wouldn’t be a family without some dysfunction, of course, but even with so many different personalities on board that are often at odds with one another, they’re at odds in an endearing way.Ĭompetence also puts Prim’s brother, Percy, in the spotlight. Prim is also like a mother to practically everyone on the airship, and you truly get the sense that the crew is one big family. ![]() Prim is practical where Rue is whimsical, and so the two best friends balance each other out very well. The title is very fitting here, as the novel focuses on Primrose Tunstell, probably the most reliable member of Captain Prudence Akeldama’s crew. Review: It’s been a while since we last checked in with the motley crew of the Spotted Custard, but the newest installment in Gail Carriger’s The Custard Protocol series was absolutely worth the wait! I didn’t realize how much I missed this group of adorably quirky characters until I started reading Competence. Meanwhile, back on board the airship, Prim’s twin Percy just wants to be left alone with his books instead of dealing with the mayhem that typically follows wherever the Spotted Custard goes. It’s up to the Spotted Custard’s always dependable purser Primrose Tunstell to help find a way to save the day. ![]() The airship’s crew must first, however, solve the rather pesky problem of a helium leak. To Sum It Up: The Spotted Custard is off on another adventure, this time in search of vampires in Peru. ![]()
