### ⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Arcana obfuscates Ms. Quick's considerable talent, IMO.
  

*by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on January 2, 2018*

I've happily enjoyed Ms. Quick's Regency genre novels. Recently laughed my way through "Mistress," and consider it a keeper.  Thus, I was quite disappointed to discover that the 1st in her Arcane Society series failed to please me...I mean, I went from thinking, "Oh, goodie! There's 5 or 6 more to go," to "Oh, dear. I wonder if it's worth trying the 2nd one?"  Maybe it was just me, having a bad hair day, but I don't think so.  The dialogue often seemed trite & forced, the handling of paranormal phenomena & psychic ability was often ham-fisted [incidentally, if you're into that sort of thing, "The Other Side of Midnight," is a wonderful book], the plot somewhat flimsy - I'm still not entirely sure what the ancestral alchemist's "potion" was supposed to be good for (enhancing whatever paranormal ability one might have?), why so many were searching for it, what anyone will do with it, and how a potion that must be taken simultaneously with its antidote would make sense in any way.  To the extent that it's reliable, information about early photographic chemicals & techniques is of interest, as is the period fascination with hypnotism & spiritualism. Lots of plot twists - the plot is an intricate construction - but again somehow flimsy, failing to support & drive the story in a believable way (at least for me). A somewhat muddied grasp of how people with  paranormal sensory apparatus experience & understand their condition, perhaps - e.g. Gabriel's character teeters on a brink between vampire-like predation and protective evil-guy-eradicator in both his own perception & the author's depiction of him.  I did finish the book, but tempted to discard it several times.

    The “first” Arcane book, but like the other reviewer, I agree that it is better not to read this one first.
  

*by T***E on Reviewed in the United States on May 12, 2018*

I have to agree with the reviewers who weren’t blown away by this book. I have read probably more than 15 of her other books which I have usually given 5 stars.If it hadn’t been for the second half, I would have given it 3 stars, if I had even finished it.I realize these regency type mystery/romances require a suspension of reality, but this one pushed it past that much more than usual.The whole plot revolves around the main character setting out to have sex right at the first of the book for one time only. Considering she was a virgin and what the consequences could have been to have her character ruined and lose her ability to make a living to support her family, it was totally implausible. I won’t further give my other reasons.I almost quit reading after the first few chapters, but held on until the end.What I did like about it was that unlike many of her books, the main male character is the one who falls in love with the heroine first. It would have improved the book so much more if more time had been spent at the first of the book to show a burgeoning attraction. Not just this immediate “lets get down a dirty” for the sex itself. The plot picks up and if you can get past the whole premise of what happens at the beginning, it becomes much more like Amanda Quicks other books. That is why I ended up giving it 4 stars instead of 3. Yes, just like Quick’s other books, it is a cookie  cutte romance with a varying mystery.She is an excellent writer and I never figure out the ending, which is what makes the book. I still can’t figure out how I can love these books, but find the Jayne Ann Krentz books totally lacking in a good plot and expert writing, because it sure doesn’t seem to be possible that they are written by the same author. I find those books to have both two dimensional characters and plots.As I have said before, her explicit description of the sex between them goes way too far.I agree with another reviewer who recommended reading the books in an order other than chronologically in order for the whole Arcane Society to “make sense.” If you had no prior knowledge of the Arcane Society, the explanation in this one is pretty lame.

    5 STARS, VICTORIAN ERA
  

*by K***R on Reviewed in the United States on September 6, 2020*

The start of a new Series that begins in the late Victorian Age of England's Society that for the different Books will extend into other time era's, and yes even 2 other time writing selves of our brilliant author, Amanda Quick. This 5 STARS masterpiece is a beginning to what is promised a whirlwind of mystery, science of the mind meaning mind physical traits being as prominent as taste, or smell in some people and the strongest are usually members of The Arcane Society. Shush, don't fret, erotic sexual togetherness definitely explode in good taste as usual. RECOMMEND
