- A Princess of Roumania (Hardcover)
by Paul Park (Author) From Publishers Weekly Sharp characterization and an unusual historical backdrop distinguish Park's charming leadoff to an intricate new fantasy series. In an alternate 18th-century world where England's been swamped by a tidal wave, America teems with blond savages and "Roumania" and Germany battle for European domination, a magic book concocted by conjuress Aegypta Schenck sends young Miranda Popescu, the "white tyger" descendant of ancient royalty and Roumania's hope of freedom from "black tyranny," to Massachusetts to escape the fiendish Baroness Nicola Ceausescu and the heinous elector of Ratisbon. With her best friend, Andromeda (turned magically into first a yellow dog and later a charismatic male Roumanian courtier), and her loyal teenage admirer, Peter ("really" the son of Roumania's bravest warrior), Miranda makes hard choices to start fulfilling her destiny. Park (Celestis, etc.) leaves some tantalizing loose ends, while the wily baroness and the necromancing elector promise dashing adventure and delicious heartbreak ahead. Blurbs from Ursula K. Le Guin and John Crowley testify to the novel's high quality.
- The Tourmaline (Hardcover)
by Paul Park (Author) The sequel to Parks stunning fantasy debut, A Princess of Roumania. Teenager Miranda Popescu is at the fulcrum of a deadly political and diplomatic battle between conjurers in an alternate fantasy world where Roumania is a leading European power. Miranda was hidden by her aunt in our world. An American couple adopted and raised her in their quiet Massachusetts college town, but she had been translated by magic back to her own world, and is at large, five years in the future. The mad Baroness Ceaucescu in Bucharest, and the sinister alchemist, the Elector of Ratisbon, who holds her true mother prisoner in Germany, are her enemies. This is the story of how Mirandaseparated from her two best friends, Peter and Andromeda, who have been left behind in the forests of an alternate Americabegins to grow into her own personality. And how Peter and Andromeda are shockingly changed in the process of making their way to Roumania to find Miranda again at the end of this book. The exciting second volume of this brand new fantasy series, The Tourmaline is not to be missed.
- The White Tyger (Hardcover)
by Paul Park (Author) From Publishers Weekly Starred Review. Park's fascinating, sharply written third novel set in an alternate-reality German-occupied "Roumania" (after 2006's The Tourmaline) finds 15-year-old Miranda Popescu in danger of being used as a pawn in a complicated political game. Once a girl from Berkshire County, Mass., before her mysterious displacement to this strange land where alchemy really works, she tries to hold onto the person she was while developing her new potential, especially by exploring the shadowy secret world of animal souls that underlies daily reality. With the help of her friends Chevalier de Graz (previously Peter Gross in the Berkshires) and the shape-shifting Lieutenant Prochenko (once a girl known as Andromeda), she resists her chief antagonist, the memorable, cunning Baroness Ceausescu. Though Park makes few concessions for new readers to this series, the surprising and convincing character-driven action will seize the imagination of fans and newcomers alike.
