Mary Robinette Kowal's Without a Summer
The third book in the Glamourist Histories series is more of the same super awesome Regency historical setting with MAGIC. In this one, Jane and her husband are off to London for work, bringing along her younger sister in the hopes of finding her a husband. But it's the Year Without a Summer, and political tensions are high. Kowal does a great job weaving actual history into her magical universe (or . . . vice versa?), and I'm getting a weirdly complete picture of the era between these books and the CS Harris mysteries. Anyway, this series brings me great joy, and the only bad thing about tearing through this one is that now I have an endless wait till the next one comes out. A.
