Esther Freisner is an author who makes me laugh. Do you ever laugh out loud when your reading? It's a little embaressing, but her books make me do it.In this story Esther takes you to a world where Magic is real. England has been ruled by Druids for centuries. Britian is surround by a magical shield which keeps out all commerce England does not want.Brithric Donne, is the Sherlock character, a logical man stuck in a land where magic precludes logic. He and his faithful companion Dr. John H. Weston who has a secret of his own, solve crimes without the help of magic.The Queen is in danger and Donne and Weston rush to her rescue. Weston has a more then patriotic interest in helping the queen.Each chapter has a title based on an Authur Conan Doyle story. Esther refers to a couple of stories that Conan Doyle just allued to.This novel is a clever tribute to Sherlock Holmes, but it also gives Watson or Weston a chance to tell his own story. I would highly reccomend this story. I'd have to give it ten stars!
