The Looking Glass Trilogy Book 2
This is without question my
favorite of the Looking Glass stories, although I’ve really liked them all.
Quicksilver is set in the past as
opposed to the other books which are set in the present. I think I enjoy the
dichotomy of a Victorian lady being smart, talented and self-sufficient.
The lady in question is
Victoria. She has the psychical talent
of being able to see after images in mirrors. She makes her living doing mirror
readings.
Owen, the male lead, is a member
of a family whose psychical talent allows them to see the trail of evil. And,
they make their livings tracking it down and eradicating it.
Victoria runs afoul of an evil
doer who wants to kill her. Owen is following the trial of evil left behind,
discovers Virginia, and saves her. Together they solve the mystery of the glass
talent murders, evil destroys itself, and everybody apparently lives happily
ever after.
I must say that while this is
billed as part of a trilogy, all three books leave enough questions, loose ends
and fascinating characters to create a much longer series. Maybe Ms. Quick will
indulge us with more of these stories.
