Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell : A Novel

Rating:
Summary: An inferiority complex in the making
Review: One of those amazingly, intimidatingly clever, but witty and compulsively readable books (like The Eyre Affair) that make one glad to be a reader! It seems ridiculous to cite an impressive historical accuracy in a book about magicians, but this period was a favorite of mine to study, and all the little details she puts in seem to be dead on the mark. I like that in a work of fantasy!
