The sequel to Tinker (2003) continues the adventures of salvage-yard owner and intuitive mechanic Tinker and Wolf Who Rules Wind, an elflord whose domain now includes most of early-twenty-first-century Pittsburgh, which was transported to Elfhome through a gate. Tinker is now genetically an elf, and she and Wolf are married. Their honeymoon consists, however, of trying to coordinate the mind-sets of humans and elfkind, both between one another and as lord and lady of Wolf's realm. And they also must stave off the attempts of the oni (Japanese demons) to conquer the realm, fight intrigue that includes assassination plots, and build a gate to return those Pittsburghers who wish to return. All of that keeps them busy and the reader turning pages. Frieda Murray

The popular fantasy novel Tinker introduced the inventor-heroine of the same name, who lives in a near-future Pittsburgh, which shares an interdimensional border with the land of the elves. In this sequel, Wolf Who Rules, the elven noble whose destiny is intertwined with Tinker, finds himself besieged from all sides. Viceroy and head of the Wind Clan, he had been able to guarantee the safety of everyone in his realm, but faced with an oni invasion, he has had to call in royal troops and relinquish his monopoly of Pittsburgh, which is now entirely stranded on Elfhome. He now struggles to keep the peace between the humans, the newly arrived Stone Clan, the royal forces, a set of oni dragons, the half-oni children who see themselves as human, and the tengu trying to escape their oni enslavement. Meanwhile, Tinker strives to solve the mystery of a growing discontinuity in Turtle Creek. She's plagued with inexplicable nightmares that may hold the keys to Pittsburgh's future. The only clue from the Queen's oracle to help Tinker is a note with five English words on it: Follow the Yellow Brick Road. Oni, and dragons and tengu ? oh my!
