L. A. Taylor Cat's paw
Ace 0441001815 / 9780441001811 PAPERBACK Good
0441001815 ISBN: 0441001815 Mass Market Paperback. G. Lite wear, creases otherwise a solid unmarked copy. Ace Books, 1995. Fantasy. Editorial Reviews: From School Library Journal YA?While on a trip completing secret investigative work for the Governor, Miranda's husband disappears. She decides to find him herself, since the local police force does not seem to care; a stray polydactyl cat accompanies her on her journey. Set in an unnamed civilization with the technological advancements of about the year 1910, the story reveals that the practice of magic has been outlawed but is still practiced by a few. The fast pace, good characterization, and hint of the outcome keep readers rapidly turning the pages. A great choice for a quick read or an introduction to fantasy. Copyright 1995 Reed Business Information, Inc. From Library Journal When Miranda's husband, the lightkeeper of the beacon at Gwynnhead, fails to return from a secret mission for the government, she sets out on a seemingly hopeless quest to find him. Taylor sets this low-key fantasy in a world where magic is officially denied despite hints of its continued existence. The presence of a protagonist who possesses no special skills except for her common sense and uncommon determination provides a refreshing departure from standard fantasy heroes. A good choice for most libraries. Copyright 1995 Reed Business Information, Inc. More of a mystery than fantasy, but good either way!, March 5, 2001 Reviewer: Jenner PiRat (USA) - This book is one of my personal favorites! It is he story of the wife of a lighthouse keeper who sets out to find her long-lost husband. With a cat by her side and only a small handful of clues to go by, Miranda Glivven sets out to discover the secret behind her husband's strange disapearance. This book has plenty of suspence and mystery to hold a reader's attention 'till the very last page. I highly suggest it! A+ May ship from alternate location depending on your zip code and availability.
