I make my living reading news copy _ 8 hours a day, 5 days a week _ and have done so for 30+ years. It takes a rare book to pique my interest enough to spend my valuable personal time on it, let alone write a review. That said, I am making an exception with "The Incubus in The Attic'' by Merabeth James.Not since my youth _ when I could escape into the works of the Bronté sisters, Jane Austen and Mary Shelley _ have I had such an enjoyable read. Ms. James is a true wordsmith who paints vivid images and breathes life into all her characters _well, almost all.For a short while, I could feel the seaspray and savor the charm of the Cornwall manor.I am hoping for a sequel.
