Rich, stylish, and uber-geeky. A thrill-ride to the darkly glittering crossroads of myth and archeology.
PRAISE FOR OWL AND THE JAPANESE CIRCUS
“She is an archaeologist, renegade, fantasy game lover, and thief who lives in a wacky world populated by dragons, nagus, and vampires. She is Owl, and we meet her for the first time in Owl and the Japanese Circus, a book that’s fast-paced, humorous, action-filled, and completely original. Kristi Charish has created a wonderful, quirky character in Owl, and I predict this adventure is going be only the first of many.” – Ian Hamilton, author of the Ava Lee novels
