The Geomagician

Jennifer Mandula's The Geomagician is a magical story with my favorite sort of heroine - intelligent and strong but with a tender heart. Come for the enchanting writing. Stay for the baby pterodactyl!

???????Meg Shaffer, USA Today Bestselling Author of The Wishing Game

The Geomagician is an absolute joy of a historical fantasy that feels truly fresh and new. The worldbuilding is so clever, vivid, and fully realized, but it’s the characters that really make this book shine - real, flawed, lovable people with complex relationships that you can root for. There’s magic, romance, political machinations, dinosaurs…what more do you need? I loved this book - Jennifer Mandula is an author to watch.

Martha Waters, author of To Have and to Hoax

The Geomagician is a delightful book, scholarly and clever but still full of heart. Jennifer Mandula has created a world so vivid and fully realized that it almost breathes, with a complex interweaving of politics, science, religion, and class. Full of wonder and magic, the story will hold onto your imagination even after you've turned the last page. Five baby pterodactyls out of five.
