City of Dark Magic

Book Jacket for: City of dark magic : a novelMagnus Flyte writes an interesting story in Cityof Dark Magic.  The book takes Sarah Weston from her graduate studies in music to Prague where she spends a summer setting up a Beethoven centric display for a new museum but also gets entangled in a mysterious series of events that include time travel (in some sense), missing antiquities, alchemists and their machinations, and even a quasi-immortal dwarf.  The book was interesting enough to finish but was not terribly compelling.  I would recommend it to people with a taste for the fantastic.
