Though she is certain she must be going mad, she is desperate enough to follow the cat's advice and impersonates a famous Russian ballerina. The cat, it turns out, is actually an Elemental Earth Spirit, and leads her to minor stardom.

Meanwhile, the real Russian ballerina has fallen victim to an evil troll who takes over her body and kills her patrons, drinking their life essences in order to strengthen his powers. And soon, the troll focuses his dark attentions on the young dancer...

Ms. Lackey's Elemental Masters series is a total delight. I read each one as soon as I can get it. The books are loosely based on classic fairy tales and I love picking out all of the similarities. Ninette, a young french dancer, is on the brink of starvation after she is fired, due to the jealousy of the star performer, from the ballet company due to the. She encounters a talking cat and thus begins her journey, literally, to fame and fortune. Anyone who is into to fantasy really should add this series to their personal collection.
