Synopsis "Page Turner: Avarice and The Arcane. (in English)"
Page lives in a world where a person's name determines her character. So why does she think Ebenezer will be a good match, and follow him blindly to the big city? It will take a fair amount of luck and a good bit of magic for Page to survive the trap set for her.I live next to a cemetery. James G. Blaine, Maine's most famous senator, sleeps at the top of the hill. Just down from him is the Turner family, resting together. The youngest Turner, Page, was born on my birthday in 1889. She would have visited the original Lithgow Library during her lifetime. But she didn't live very long. Page died in 1906, just shy of seventeen. It seemed so sad to me that someone named Page Turner should die before her life really got started. So I wrote a book for her. A little austenesque, a little steam punk, a little weird, Page in my book is defined by her name. All the characters are, like self-aware Dickens characters who can't escape their fates because of a few letters applied like a spell to their destinies. Of course she had to be a librarian, but how could Page become engaged to Ebenezer? A series of unfortunate events leave Page working in a magic book shop where she meets a horrible man. Then she has to save an even more horrible man from himself. Imagine Douglas Adams had tried to write Jane Austen and decided to throw in a little magic as well. A little steampunk, a little Victorian romance, a little magical revenge.
