What this book is about
Robin Blyth is accidentally assigned to a liaison role working with a magical government department — the result of a bureaucratic mix-up. Marske's Edwardian fantasy romance features genuine mystery, an elaborately constructed magic system, and an M/M romance with explicit content that develops with real emotional investment. Among the best-received debut fantasies of recent years.
