The book seemed to lack continuity, especially toward the end. Sometimes I had a hard time figuring out what was happening.

This fantasy novel takes place in the early 1800's, and is written in a style that mimics the style of that era. The writing style is excellent, and convinced me of the "realism" of the writing as appropriate to the age. The story takes place in England, at a time when most magicians are "theoretical", that is they study magic from books simply for the academic interest of the subject. The story revolves around two "practicing" magicians, who put their theoretical knowledge to practical use. Mr. Norrell is a conservative, extremely ambitious but wimpy character who prefers to stay at home. It seems like his ambition is to be recognized as the sole magician of England, and to snuff out the aspirations of all other magicians. On the other hand, Jonathan Strange is a wilder magician, who applies his techniques during the Napoleonic Wars, and wants to help others reach their aspirations of becoming a practical magician. The only problem with the book, is that the plot moves grindingly slowly, and as a result, the novel is far too long. There are numerous tangents, and even "historical" footnotes throughout the story. This doesn't make it a bad book--it just does not suit my personal preferences. I did not read this book--I listened to the audiobook version, as charmingly read by Simon Prebble. The reader's English accent helped to bring an air of realism to the story, with just enough differentiation to the accents and voices of the various characters to help me understand and enjoy the dialogs.
