(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
This review is from: A Scholar of Magics (College of Magics) (Hardcover)
Like Caroline Stevermer's earlier book 'A College of Magics' this is set in the Edwardian era in a parallel universe where magic is part of everyday life. Samuel Lambert, a sharpshooter from Wyoming, is staying at Glasscastle University,(Glastonbury?) a very exclusive establishment which teaches magic to young men of the right sort of background. Lambert has been invited there to help with a mysterious top-secret project konw as Agincourt, for which his marksmanship talent is essential. He makes friends with a student called Nicholas Fell, and meets the provost's attractive sister Jane (from 'A College of Magics'),a teacher of mathematics at Greenlaw, a women's magical college in Normandy. Jane has a message for Nicholas Fell, he is to be the new Warden of the West (a sort of magic guardian) but he doesn't want to be. Strange things being to happen, Nicholas Fell disappears, as does Jane's brother Robert, and she and lambert set out to find them. Then Jane disappears too, and Lambert has to find all of them,and try and find out who is responsible for the disappearances. And why has the Agincourt Project been cancelled? This is a very enjoyable story with a clever plot, interesting characters and lots of humour. One of my favourit bits is where Lambert fells the villain with a cricket ball. lambert is an amiable hero, and Jane is an attractive and interesting heroine, in spite of her passion for reckless driving. And unlike the earlier book, this one has does not have a depressing ending. Great fun.
