Synopsis
When Mairelon made Kim his ward, he promised to teach her to be a lady and a magician. But magic proves to be harder than it looks, and being a lady is even harder. Before frustration--and Merrill's formidably correct aunt--can drive Kim mad, a mysterious gentleman attempts to burgle the Merrill town house. Soon, disaster strikes Mairelon, and Kim braves London society and her old, familiar back slums to save him, helped by a London moneylender, a Russian wizard prince, seven legendary French wizards, and Mairelon's charmingly eccentric mother.

From Kirkus Reviews
No, not a hospital drama about ailing wizards, but another yarn set in a fantasy Regency England featuring Richard Merrill, a.k.a. Mairelon the Magician, and his ward Kim, the former street thief. While Kim resists Richard's Aunt Agatha's determined attempts to introduce her to Polite Society (i.e., find her a husband), a gentleman burglar attempts to steal a book from the house library. Somehow connected to this, so Kim learns from an old thief colleague, are the efforts of a wicked moneylender to gather up street urchins who have magic talents, coupled with a mysterious, debilitating magical attack on Mairelon himself. Something of an improvement over Mairelon the Magician (1991), but still leisurely, YA-ish, and lacking innovation. -- Copyright ©1997, Kirkus Associates, LP. All rights reserved.
From Library Journal
This sequel to Mairelon the Magician (Tor, 1991. o.p.) finds Kim, an apprentice magician and ward of Richard Merrill (Mairelon), in Regency England society. When Mairelon's magic powers are stolen, Kim must trust her magician's abilities to uncover the thief. This light romance cloaked in fantasy is a marginal purchase.
