I thought it stood as complete book, although it was obvious it was a series. That said, I wasn't necessarily interested in getting the next in the series. It's fairly light reading and a good way to pass the time. There are a lot of authors offering first books free and moving to a 4.99 or even 5.99 price for subsequent books. I didn't think for this type of book it was particularly short. Cozy books (whether cozy steampunk, cozy mystery or cozy fantasy) are typically on the shorter side when compared to sci fi/fantasy or steampunk that is not cozy!
