In this re-read of a Pride and Prejudice sequel Mary and Kitty remain unmarried, but with Kitty spending most of her time at Jane and Elizabeth's homes, Mary is left alone with her parents. Mary, due to a gift from Wickham, has developed a fondness for novels. Then one day she is accidentally sent a book on magic instead of her ordered novel. Then her life is transformed and she sets out on an adventure of her own.
An enjoyable well-written story.

One day, a book arrives that contains spells and Mary finds she is quite adept at wielding magic. From there begins intrigue and adventure. There's a visit to London with Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy, a meeting with other sorcerers, and a mysterious new vicar appears in Longbourn. Could he be the Glastonbury Sorcerer? You'll have to read to find out.
