Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:The second book of Hoffman's acclaimed Stravaganza series is now available inpaperback. The life of young Georgia takes a sudden turn when she buys a tinyfigurine of a winged horse and suddenly finds herself swept up into the worldof Stravaganza. Review:"Characters travel through space and time, encounter mysterious creatures and more in an assortment of new installments. Of the first book, Stravaganza: City of Masks, PW said, 'The Renaissance backdrop [and Venetian-style city] set an elegant mood for the time-travel toggling.' This time a miniature model of a winged horse (another talisman of the Stravaganti, a brotherhood of scientists who use talismans to travel between time periods) sends 15-year-old equestrian Georgia to a 16th-century version of Tuscany in Stravaganza: City of Stars by Mary Hoffman. There Georgia gets caught up in the intrigue surrounding the birth of a real winged horse." Publishers Weekly (Copyright Reed Business Information, Inc.)
