Agnes has taken solace in the cat shelter she runs. There she can focus on the waifs and strays of Montreal and not on the loss of her husband. Or she can until a battle between magicians ends up with her shelter becoming a ruin. Now she has to find a new home for her and her rescues. So it seems too good to be true when she finds a property in an exclusive part of the city for very little rent. It is too good to be true. Turns out the Witch King Haverlock Renard lives in the basement. Oh and his sister wants to kill him and doesn’t mind taking down the entire world with her. I loved every page of this book. It’s perfect to curl up with and get lost in. I was already hoping it would be the first in a new series before the end of the first chapter. This is a world where magic is known about. It may be frowned upon, especially as it nearly causes the end of the world. It is more seen as a way to class people, and judge them.Agnes is a great character. No nonsense, caring and with a practical side that comes in handy for dealing with recalcitrant magicians, she discovers that Haverlock may not deserve the reputation he has, and that her broken heart may be able to mend.It’s only recently that I’ve discovered cosy fantasy and how delightful it can be. Agnes Aubert’s Mystical Cat Shelter is a perfect addition to the genre. There’s a (very) slow burn romance, humour, a wonderful setting in a timeless city and cats. What more could you ask for?
