Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell by Susanna Clarke
Jane Austen meets Philip Pullman in this mesmerizing novel about two magicians in 18th century England
' unquestionably the finest English novel of the fantastic written in the last seventy yearsIt's funny, moving, scary, otherworldly, practical and magical..' Neil Gaiman I found it absolutely compelling. The narrative drive is irresistible and I could not stop reading until I had finished it The author captures the period and its literary conventions with complete conviction. It's an astonishing achievement. I can't think of anything that is remotely like it. Charles Palliser
