"Elemental" is a tale with a dimensional plot and characters with everyday goals and concerns. On this realistic foundation Landis presents the technology, Thaumaturgy, more often called magic. This winning combination makes it easy for us to suspend disbelief, even to the point of magic in a science fiction story. It doesn't require a degree in physics, or any hard science, to understand the functioning of magic in this far distance era. The pace of the story builds as you learn the intriguing applications and research surrounding Thaumaturgy--until the fast paced conclusion of a true action adventure tale. I've reread it a number of times and will again. If you like science fiction, I suggest you try this story. -Marcia Hanson, Fictionwise Recommender
