4 – This is a good, mellow fantasy. I’ve read a couple of Hambly’s books and they are always enjoyable, easy reads. Hambly has mixed proper Victorian style England with magic and just a little bit of romance. It’s dark enough to appeal to me (the whole story is centered around a young woman who is cursed to die on her wedding night) and yet the characters lend a lighter air to what could be a horror story. If you aren’t big into “fantasy” novels, I recommend you try Barbara Hambly because her writing gives a lot for a variety of readers to enjoy.
