Tim Powers delivers again!  This inimitable mash-up features Victorian poets, the world below the streets of London, ghosts in bottles, and refreshingly evil vampires, and, as always, it's a wild and unpredictable ride!  The story seamlessly melds real-life historical people and occurrences with the magical, the paranormal, and the just plain bizarre.  When you read a book by Powers, you never know exactly what to expect, but you know it's going to be great!

The Shadows was my favorite children's novel in a good long while, and Spellbound is just as wonderful! Full of adventure, humor and whimsical charm (as well as three talking cats with very big personalities), this delightful book is a rare speciman: a children's novel that's just as fun for adults as it is for kids.

The Glass Demon (Paperback)

I love this author! Just like her first book, The Vanishing of Katharina Linden, the Glass Demon is the perfect suspense novel -- creepy, smart and utterly gripping.  Grant creates a delicious sense of impending doom, drawing on German folklore for her tone (though not her story).  And her writing is riveting!  I dare you to put this one down once you've started reading it!

It's the Christmas holidays, and there's a blizzard outside to boot.  But Flavia is kept plenty busy with a group of cinema actors filming a movie at Buckshaw - especially once the tempermental lead actress is murdered.  This charming almost cozy addition to a delightful series is perfect reading for the holidays--or any time of the year.

An enjoyable and interesting take on Snow White set in West  Virginia in the 1950s.  I really enjoyed the author's spin on the traditional story and her seamless blend of the real with the magical.  Plus, the wicked stepmother was terrifyingly creepy! Among all the fairy tale retellings coming out these days, this one is definitely a standout!

This swashbuckling adventure is packed with non-stop awesome!  Pirates, magic, creepy villains, peril on the high seas...yet far from cliche, the entire book is delightfully unique, a story only Tim Powers could invent. Exciting, funny, intense, and vividly cinematic, this novel is definitely a winner.  Read it!
