I sprung $4.95 on an audible sale and bought a book I've never heard of,
Hard Magic. It's the concept from
X Men or
Heroes, ie, some humans have evolved magic powers, so it's set in a well-developed alternate reality. The 20th Century is there but different. It's set in the 1930s depression, in America, with gangsters and prohibition and Oakies from the dustbowl and flying blimps and fedora hats, but with different wars and politics. And it's got a big cast of characters with intertwined stories, I always like that. $4.95 well spent.
