Yes, only three stars for this short story by Jennifer Estep. It is here featured in whole, as it does in the Anthology, "CarniePunk. I only gave this three stars because JE could have written this in her sleep. There is only a modicum of the usual snarky humor and exquisite magic and knife-work readers of the series have come to expect.

I suppose it might get some not familiar with Gin Blanco to give the series a try. It does read more like a "let's squeeze as much info about Gin Blanco in a short space and maybe people will investigate the series. Otherwise, it does nothing to advance the story arc and only serves as a vehicle to show what a force Gin can be, and with her sister with her, they make a formidable pair. The plot is too thin to bother with summarizing beyond saying that Gin and her cop sister, Bria, go to a carnival from which a girl disappeared the night before.

They find her, violence ensues - outcome predictable. I will say that if the reader is not familiar with the "Elemental Assassin" series, this story is good enough to perhaps stir some interest among those person.

One person found this helpful. Although this particular storyline is not pertinent or instrumental in the Elemental Assassin series and it does not further the current storyline it does show a side to Gin as her relationship with her sister Bria grows closer with every otherworld encounter. The premise follows Gin and Bria as they search for a missing sixteen year old girl last seen at the travelling carnival in Ashland. As fans of the series know, nothing is as simple as a missing girl.

Bria and Gin will soon discover that there is more to the carnival acts than meets the eye. Someone knows something but everyone is afraid to talk. When Gin and Bria finds themselves on the receiving end of some elemental magic, it will take the actions of two sisters to stop the Amazing Esmerelda and uncover the secret to her everlasting youth.

Each short story brings the mysterious world of the travelling carnival onto the pages of Carniepunk. Parlor Tricks is a wonderful short story found in the anthology, Carniepunk.

The story was is still? The story comes from Ms. Estep's Elemental Assassin series, but can be read completely stand alone. The story features Gin aka The Spider and her sister, Bria. The pair are investigating the disappearance of a year-old girl who was last seen at a traveling carnival. After interviewing some of the workers, Bria and Gin realize something is not quite right. Soon the pair find themselves captives of a crazed woman. The story is very short, but fun. It has no baring on the overall Elemental Assassin world or plot.

The story is quick-paced, the crime interesting, the ending happy. There is a little bit of a "bonus" as we see Gin take her hand at a parlor trick.

Gin gets the job done. Oh, and it was fun to see a reference to Karma Girl, a character from Estep's Bigtime superhero series. Karma Girl Book 1 I've been reading all of the Gin Bianco shorts and the freebies from the author's site today and this was one of my favorites If you are Gin fan and have missed the freebie shorts, they are worth checking out, I really liked "Spider's Nemesis" which is the making of the Spider, though she doesn't realize it, from Mab's POV. Although I really enjoyed all of them, these three stand out in my mind. You got Elementals, Zombies, Incubus', and freaky clowns.

I guess I was expecting more than just a light detective story in a setting that certainly belonged to the Magical Realism genre, but which was very little established.

Sweet, just downloaded it. And thank the publisher. They are the ones who made the story free. Hope you enjoy it. How do i download the book…???? Or how do i get a free copy….
