A Marvellous Light by Freya Marske

It's a simple error that has Robin Blyth in the office when Edwin Courcey comes in. Edwin is confused - where's Reggie? It's this confusion that throws him off enough that he accidentally reveals to Robin the secret magical society that liases with the English government. Robin takes it all in rather easily which shocks Edwin even more. Edwin decides not to wipe Robin's memory and they are suddenly working together to figure out where Reggie went and why a mysterious man has hexed Robin. Along the way, the two fall in love.
I had heard a number of podcasts praising this book and I wonder if I would have liked this book more if I had read it instead of listening to it. There were parts that lagged that were emphasized by the audio narration but the world building was really fun. 

Three and a half stars

Followed by A Restless Truth
