Move Over, Buffy! Tinker Not Only Kicks
Supernatural Butt—
She's a Techie Genius, Too!
Inventor, girl genius Tinker lives in a near-future Pittsburgh which now exists mostly in the land of the elves. She runs her salvage business, pays her taxes, and tries to keep the local ambient level of magic down with gadgets of her own design. When a pack of wargs chase an Elven noble into her scrap yard, life as she knows it takes a serious detour. Tinker finds herself taking on the Elven court, the NSA, the Elven Interdimensional Agency, technology smugglers and a college-minded Xenobiologist as she tries to stay focused on what's really important – her first date. Armed with an intelligence the size of a planet, steel toed boots, and a junk yard dog attitude, Tinker is ready to kick butt to get her first kiss.

Product ReviewI don't care if I AM swayed by the fact I live less than fifty miles from her--TINKER and the sequels are the best so-called "urban fantasy" novels to come along in years. If you liked Charles de Lint's early novels and hate his most recent ones (a common and understandable view), then TINK is for you!

Product ReviewA very intertaining story. A different take on urban fantasy. I enjoyed the feisty character of Tinker. I am looking forward to more books in the series.
