Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Unexpected Magic is the first book in the series, Many Kinds of Magic. It is set in the Regency era of another universe-one in which magic is real and has never faded out of the world. And that changes the history of the United Kingdom and the time of the Napoleonic wars in ways both subtle and obvious. For some relevant touch points regarding the historical changes, see the author notes.\*\*\*Jasper Thornton was just a child when his mage-gift first surfaced-a powerful gift that delighted his relatives and won him recognition as heir to the Duke of Findlater.Twenty years on, he is still failing to live up to that early promise, his power still strong, but erratic and unfocused. Now the despair of his family and of the London College of Mages, he has been reduced to running errands for the duke and the Crown.Cordelia Nettleford is the ordinary daughter of a couple with only sufficient magic to cling onto the fringes of the peerage. Her parents' hopes and dreams are fully invested in their only son, her younger brother.Everything changes when Delia wakes up one morning to find that a dragon has hatched out of a hen's egg and eaten most of the flock. The following explosion of magical manifestations centered on Nettleford Manor includes the birth of a unicorn. Delia is selected as the unicorn's maiden.Sent to bring the unicorn and its maiden to London, Jasper discovers that Delia has one of the rarest gifts of all-and England's enemies want her and her effect on others.Falling in love with a lady set aside as the unicorn's maiden is almost as futile as his unstable mage-gift, but he can't seem to help himself. He is enchanted by her calm competence, her sense of duty, and her intelligence. He will just have to adore the lady from a distance and do everything he can to protect her.Many Kinds of MagicBook 1 - Unexpected MagicBook 2 - Twisted MagicBook 3 - Small MagicBook 4 - Wild MagicBook 5 - Forgotten MagicBook 6 - Ordinary MagicBook 7 - Dangerous MagicBook 8 - Weird MagicBook 9 - Dark Magic.…
