| OLD TOWN MAGIC MARIE TREANOR ISBN# 1-933471-94-8 December 2005 Triskelion Publishing www.triskelionpublishing.com E-book $4.99 134 Pages Futuristic Romance Rating: Cat is a lawyer and a member of the wealthy low-risk class. Her parents manufacture the vaccine that keeps the dreaded virus from decimating the populace. She is in an unhappy marriage to a cheating spouse. Her only real happiness is in singing in a bar in the high-risk sector. The Magician has been drawn to Cat since he first saw her sing. He has lived in the high-risk area all of his life. It is a life full of injustice. The inhabitants are uneducated, starving, and lacking most medical care except for the vaccine. In the Edinburgh of the future, those in power maintain the status quo by separating the populace into groups or classes: high-risk, middle-risk, and low-risk. The high-risk are segregated into a ghetto-like area and not permitted to leave. The low-risk are the wealthy and have all they can want. The virus that was the excuse to separate them all may or may not exist anymore, but those in power are comfortable and find the situation profitable. A low-risk woman and a high-risk man find love and struggle for freedom in this restrictive time. When Cat’s husband is kidnapped, she must rely on her new friends in the high-risk sector to get him back. I really enjoyed this one. Cat is a very sympathetic and likeable character. Old Town Magic is mysterious and sexy and when The Magician and Cat get together, it is even better. The supporting characters are very colorful and add a lot to the story. The story is filled with action and suspense, as well as some sizzling hot love scenes. Maura Reviewer for Coffee Time Romance Reviewer for Karen Find Out About New Books |
