The Architecture Of Desire

White Crow Sequence seriesNext:Left To His Own Devices(1994) →

In 17th-century London two powerful magicians—the White Crow and her husband the Lord-Architect Casaubon—are embroiled in a deadly game of politics and magic. Only drawing upon long-forsaken talent will save them from "justice". A critically acclaimed work comparable to that of Ursula LeGuin and Frank Herbert.
