I have been an avid reader for over 50 years. Out of the hundreds of books that I've held in my hands, I don't think that I've read a more imaginative and enchanting novel than The Night Circus. Each character is wonderfully wrought. The sub-plots magically intertwine. The ending is perfect, sublime. I will never forget the opening sentence--'The circus arrives without warning.' Oh, yes!
Since I was fortunate enough to find the book, I have given numerous copies as gifts and have recommended it to every fiction reader that I know.
I definitely recommend that you find The Night Circus as soon as possible. You will be delighted and enraptured, I guarantee.

One of THE best books!
The prose is delicious; written with such a command of the craft of story telling. The plot is magickal, intriguing and hypnotic. One of the best stories I have read in a long long time.
