A little dark but very good. It's magic coupled with two egotist magicians who control the destiny of the night circus through two young talented magicians who fall in love, Marco and Celia. They are in competition - a competition which can end only when one of the magicians is defeated by death. An orphan, Marco was adopted by the man in the grey suit, Alexander. Celia's father is the famous magician Prospero who is known far and wide. Le Cirque de Reves, The Circus of Dreams, which opens at dark is the stage. the author creates such a magical imagery for this fanciful story that you feel as if you are walking among those viewing the circus and its wonderful acts. Some die as a result of the competition but the love between Marco and Celia creates such atmosphere that I was sorry to see the last pages of this first time effort by a talented young author.
