(2) YA Chronicles of Kazam series. In this sequel to The Last Dragonslayer, foundling Jennifer Strange--acting manager of the Kazam employment agency for sorcerers, soothsayers, and flying carpeteers--must apply her eminently sensible brain and stalwart efficiency to stop the king from commercializing magic. The clever novel is imaginatively energetic, made more so by a gloriously formidable female protagonist.
