Summary
Two young ladies contend with the Royal College of Wizards in Regency London: first in the series filled with "magical twists and turns" (San Diego Union-Tribune).
Since they were children, cousins Kate and Cecelia have been inseparable. But in 1817, as they approach adulthood, their families force them to spend a summer apart. As Cecelia fights boredom in her small country town, Kate visits London to mingle with the brightest lights of English society. At the initiation of a powerful magician into the Royal College of Wizards, Kate finds herself alone with a mysterious witch who offers her a sip from a chocolate pot. When Kate refuses the drink, the chocolate burns through her dress and the witch disappears. It seems that strange forces are convening to destroy a beloved wizard, and only Kate and Cecelia can stop the plot. But for two girls who have to contend with the pressures of choosing dresses and beaux for their debuts, deadly magic is only one of their concerns.

Brilliant story
I’ve read the actual book and decided to try the audio book version while doing the gardening.
I must say that the audio book is just as good as the paperback and the story flows well, I’ve now downloaded the second book in the trilogy.

Just as good as I remember
One of my favourite epistolary novels of all time. I've loved this book for many years and was so delighted to find it available in audiobook form. Thoroughly enjoyed it. The narration is just a little ponderous in places, but really very good overall.
Georgette Heyer meets a sort of steampunk magical world with sprightly characters and plenty of humour.
I don't remember the other two books being quite as good as this, but definitely going to get them.
