Tom Holt
Paperback, 600 pages

This is a wowser. Tom Holt has already written the sequel to this delightful
book, published in 2002.
Are you a fan of trans-dimensionalism and / or Gilbert and Sullivan? Do you
like the wry characters of Anne Tyler? Do you hate charming heroes and
glamorous heroines? Do you insist on a well-plotted and neatly tied-up book
that is complete in itself and a headline event when a sequel is announced?
Then why are you reading this and not rushing out to read this literally
and figuratively magical novel? A delight from cover to cover, as they say.
They are right.
One to treasure, to be thrilled there is a sequel to, and to hope for more.
*** for this one.
