I love this series
Reviewed: 06-26-24
It's such a long series spanning many years, both in the story and in real time that it can be slightly repetitive in a few ways, however the characters and the setting is SO good, her nuances of emotion and inner strength, the attachments between people and the magic of the world is unparalleled in fantasy.

I've admired Michelle Obama for many years. I didn't know much about her story. She tells it well, from a woman's viewpoint, a mother's viewpoint. An excellent human story

The new novel in Mercedes Lackey’s best-selling series of an alternative Edwardian Britain, where magic is real - and Elemental Masters are in control. Lionel Hawkins is a magician whose act is only partially sleight of hand. The rest is real magic. He’s an Elemental Magician with the power to persuade the Elementals of Air to help him create amazing illusions. It doesn’t take long before his assistant, acrobat Katie Langford, notices that he’s no ordinary magician - and for Lionel to discover that she’s no ordinary acrobat, but rather an untrained and unawakened Fire Magician.

Story
The honourable Christopher Fancot, on leave from the Diplomatic Service in the summer of 1817, is startled to find his entrancing but incorrigibly extravagant mother on the brink of financial and social ruin - and more than alarmed that his identical twin, Evelyn, Earl of Denville, has disappeared without trace. Christopher, or Kit, the respectable brother, is forced into an outrageous masquerade by his wayward family's tangled affairs. But in the face of Evelyn's continued absence, even Kit's ingenuity is stretched to the limit.

Phylilida Nash does another superb job with Georgette Heyer. She is my favorite voice for these wonderful Regency romances. I go back time and time again to Heyer. False Colors remains a steadfast favorite due in part to the excellent character of Bonamy Ripple. Enjoy!
