AMarvellousLight

In debut author Freya Marske's A Marvellous Light, an Edwardian England full of magic, contracts, and conspiracies meets Red White & Royal Blue and Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell.

Robin Blyth's life is already complicated as he struggles to be a responsible older brother, employer, and the baronet of a seat that has been gutted by his parents' excesses. However, when an administrative mistake leads to his appointment as the civil service liaison to a hidden magical society, Robin discovers a new reality that he never knew existed.

Now, Robin must navigate the dangerous beauty of magic while dealing with a deadly curse and alarming visions of the future. His counterpart, Edwin Courcey, is cold and prickly, and clearly wishes Robin would disappear.

As they investigate the disappearance of Robin's predecessor, unsettling truths about their land and what binds it are revealed. Together, Robin and Edwin uncover a plot that threatens every magician in the British Isles and a secret for which people have already died to keep.
