A Most Improper Magick
(7 reviews with an average rating of 4 out of 5)
The Unladylike Adventures of Kat Stephenson
Publisher: Templar
A 21st-century take on Jane Austen's world, entertainingly viewed through the eyes of a 12-year-old heroine who discovers she has inherited her mother's magical abilities.
Kat is the youngest in the family, and her mother's death after Kat's birth gives her a feeling of inferiority and rebelliousness which makes her very independent, and encourages her to experiment with her own magic, and to restore her mother's reputation.
Burgis successfully creates a Regency atmosphere, combines 18th and 21st century language, and produces an excellent adventure story, filled with humour.
A unique take on family and relationships with strong appeal for confident girl readers.

Kat Stephenson is my perfect kind of heroine: spirited, reckless, and always breaking the rules, even though it is with the best intentions at heart. Set in Regency England, this novel successfully mixes adventure, mystery, magic, highwaymen and even a little a bit of matchmaking along the way. It is great fun and one book that is hard to put down once you have started.
