"In this final installment of Mary Robinette Kowal’s “Glamourist” series, illusion-casting glamourists Jane and Vincent travel to Antigua to deal with the death of Vincent’s father, Lord Verbury — a cruel despot who has left behind a ruined estate and terribly abused, angry slaves. Verbury’s machinations from beyond the grave trap Jane and Vincent on his plantation — but all is not as it seems, and they end up both helping and learning from a clever community of native glamourists who have crafted a rich society beyond the reach of the island’s landowners. A perfect end to a not-to-be-missed series."
