About this product

Product Information

Introducing Sherlock Holmes and John Watson to the magical early 20th century London of Mercedes Lackey's Elemental Masters series! Psychic Nan Killian and Medium Sarah Lyon-White-along with their clever birds, the raven Neville and the parrot Grey-have been agents of Lord Alderscroft, the Elemental Fire Master known as the Wizard of London, since leaving school. Now, Lord Alderscroft assigns them another commission- to work with the famous man living at 221 Baker Street-but not the one in flat B. They are to assist the man living in flat C. Dr. John Watson and his wife Mary, themselves Elemental Masters of Water and Air, take the occult cases John's more famous friend disdains, and they will need every skill the girls and their birds can muster! Nan and Sarah's first task- to confront and eliminate the mysterious and deadly entity that nearly killed them as children- the infamous Haunt of Number 10 Berkeley Square. But the next task divides the girls for the first time since they were children. A German opera star begs Sarah for help, seeking a Medium's aid against not just a single spirit, but a multitude. As Sarah becomes more deeply entwined with the Prima Donna, Nan continues to assist John and Mary Watson alone, only to discover that Sarah's case is far more sinister than it seems. It threatens to destroy not only a lifelong friendship, but much, much more.

Reviews
Praise for From a High Tower  (previous title in series): "There are adventure, danger, and all manner of magical creatures. Combined with the Grimm-like narration style this is really and truly an extraordinary modern fairy tale." --RT Book Reviews  "[A] fun and fairly light read, a good choice for a fantasy-lover's beach bag." --The Bookwyrm's Hoard "[S]olid evidence that the entire series is worth reading." --Macleod Gazette, Praise for the Elemental Masters series: "The Paris of Degas, turn-of-the-century Blackpool, and the desperation of young girls without family or other protection come to life in a  story that should interest a broad readership ." -- Booklist "All in  fine fairy-tale tradition .... It's grim fun, with some nice historical detail, and just a hint of romance to help lighten things." -- Locus "The action and dialogue flow freely, mingling with beautiful descriptions of European countryside and just a hint of romance.... A  well-developed heroine and engaging story ." -- Publishers Weekly "The fifth in the series involving the mysterious Elemental Masters, this story of a resourceful young dancer also delivers a new version of a classic fairy tale.  Richly detailed historic backgrounds  add flavor and richness to an already strong series that belongs in most fantasy collections. Highly recommended." -- Library Journal "Lackey's fantastical world of Elementals, plus her delightful Nan and Sarah, create an amusing contrast for Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes and John Watson.... The  mix of humor, history, fantasy, and mystery  is balanced in a way that any reader could pick up the book and thoroughly enjoy it from beginning to end." -- RT Reviews "The Elementals novels are  beautiful, romantic adult fairy tales . Master magician Mercedes Lackey writes a charming fantasy." --Worlds of Wonder "Ms. Lackey is  a master in fantasy , and this visit to an alternate historical England is no exception. Vivid characterization and believable surroundings are flawlessly joined in a well-detailed world." --Darque Reviews "I find Ms. Lackey's  Elemental Masters  series  a true frolic into fantasy ."   -- Fantasy Book Spot
