I read and reviewed the two volumes collected here separately, so this is basically just for my own records. The rating is an average of the individual ratings - I gave Heartless 2.5 stars, rounding up to 3 - it's my least favourite of the entire series, being a little too flippant overall. Timeless, on the other hand, got 3 stars. Honestly, I had my doubts that introducing a baby into the cast of characters would improve things, as it so rarely does, but the advantages of having a soulless protagonist, I suppose, is that Alexia's far less sentimental about things than the average heroine, so little Prudence is kept fairly subordinate within the narrative. Frankly, the best part about her is that she's largely being raised by Lord Akeldama instead of her biological parents, so the supernatural shenanigans are still front and centre. Given that's one of the most entertaining parts of this series for me, I was glad to see it unchanged.
