    <body><![CDATA[I have to say I was blown away by this book. It was a slow start at first for me (I set it down for 2 weeks before resuming from the middle) but once I gave myself over to Glen David Gold I never looked back. The story is riveting and the prose is fantastic. It is a lexical adventure through early 20th century magic. History buffs will find much to play with here. I hear AMC is turning it into a series, which will be wonderful. I can't wait to see what trouble Charles Carter may find himself in week in and week out.]]></body>
