I got the idea for THE CONJURER'S BOY when I drove past a small, dark magic shop in Chicago. I had a sudden image of a boy reluctantly entering this shop and encountering the proprietor,an old man possessing some supernatural or psychic powers. Then I recalled a tiny junk shop in the shadow of the El tracks on Addison when I was a boy, and the genial Irish gentleman who owned it and taught me about old coins and the coins of the world. He became the "Conjurer" of the book's title.

One last question, at the end of the book when Jupiter comes back, did Charlie and Harley have anything to do with that? Did Charlie share Harley's powers and "wish" her to come back in his dream? Thanks again for writing a great book. I'm off to read another book about the circus. Linda
