Reminiscent of The Golem and the Jinni, Caroline Stevermer's The Glass Magician is a magical and romantic tale set in New York's Gilded Age. A fledging magician discovers true magic...and a power that might destroy her. New York 1905: The Vanderbilts. The Astors. The Morgans. They are the cream of society-and they own the nation on the cusp of a new century. Thalia Cutler doesn't come from money or have family connections. But she knows magic-stage magic. And she dazzles the audience with fantastical acts. One night, a trick goes horribly awry. Thalia discovers a magic beyond her stage twirls and costumes, finding her world far more enchanted-and herself far more powerful-than she ever imagined. To understand what she is, Thalia will have to face a New York more dangerous than any stage she's known... before the real monsters descend to feast.
