London in the time of Queen Elizabeth I is a bustling place, its streets crowded with vendors selling goods from all over the world. In the courtyard of St. Paul's Cathedral, Alice Wood competes with other booksellers, hawking pamphlets, plays, and the latest poetry from the continent. It is a lonely life for a hardworking young widow, and she will soon put it aside. When a black-clad stranger visits, speaking in riddles and asking questions about her long-vanished son, Alice will be drawn into an adventure straight out of one of her faerie stories.

The Elizabethan court has been infiltrated by the Fair Folk, a race of magical beings whose intentions are shadowy and dangerous. With the help of Christopher Marlowe, the city's most dashing playwright, Alice must untangle the faerie conspiracy to save her son - and the crown.

I've read and love this book. Well-researched novels of Elizabethan fantasy are extremely rare. But here the reader gives us "back" and "black" pronounced with an exaggerated "British accent" that is wincingly painful, making them rhyme with "dark;" Marie's regions and social classes are wildly blended. And that's just in the narration. Marie makes Goldstein's characters sound like figures in a bodice-ripper historical romance... and yes, it turns out that such is Marie's staple narrating fare.

I love this book. I love it too much, in fact, to finish listening to this coy, self-satisfied, fairy-tale-to-the-children rendition of one of the best historical fantasy novels out there. Go find the book and read it. If you're the kind of reader who'll really get this book, you'll thank me for sending you off to read it for yourself.

Really terrific book. (Go read it.)
