Complementary Magic - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

La Magie, the nobility of London, draw their magic from the Great River that runs through the city. But something is amiss in the River. The powers of the upper classes are stagnating, Family Staves of Power are becoming weaker, and the servants and tradesmen with no magic are showing an alarming increase in abilities that were previously dismissed as superstition. When Sorcerer John Harmon is murdered, the Harmon Staff of Power and his vast fortune are passed on to Harmon’s servants, the good-hearted but wholly un-magical Mr. and Mrs Boffin. In this fantastical retelling of Charles Dickens’ Our Mutual Friend, the Boffins and their ward Bella Wilfer must sort through a mystery that reaches from conspiring aristocrats to the darkest corners of London’s underworld.
