Magic mysteriously fizzled out and now is returning to England for reasons just as mysterious. Some of my favorite things about this book: the mysterious and elusive Raven King, evil fairies who twist bargains, interpersonal conflicts between magicians, love stories, plot twists, the Regency era, and magic.
Things that people typically dislike about this book is the intrusive footnotes and asides. I listened to the audiobook and they didn’t reference the academic asides, so it might be easier for readers to listen instead.
This also has been made into a television show.
