Narration As Books Ghost Talkers

Ginger Stuyvesant, an American heiress living in London during World War I, is engaged to Captain Benjamin Harford, an intelligence officer. Ginger is a medium for the Spirit Corps, a special Spiritualist force.

Each soldier heading for the front is conditioned to report to the mediums of the Spirit Corps when they die so the Corps can pass instant information about troop movements to military intelligence.

Ginger and her fellow mediums contribute a great deal to the war efforts, so long as they pass the information through appropriate channels. While Ben is away at the front, Ginger discovers the presence of a traitor. Without the presence of her fiance to validate her findings, the top brass thinks she's just imagining things. Even worse, it is clear that the Spirit Corps is now being directly targeted by the German war effort. Left to her own devices, Ginger has to find out how the Germans are targeting the Spirit Corps and stop them. This is a difficult and dangerous task for a woman of that era, but this time both the spirit and the flesh are willing…

Write Up Appertaining To Books Ghost Talkers
This book swept me up in it, and didn't let go until it was over. It's rare for me to read something without putting it down at this point in my life, but the combination of short word count and breakneck pacing kept my eyes glued to the pages. Ginger is a wonderful protagonist, who is smart, and kind, and has the fiery temper you might expect from a woman called "Ginger," but she's definitely more than that stereotype as well. Her interactions with Helen, the other medium in her circle, who's a

With Ghost Talkers, Mary Robinette Kowal delivers on a premise so brilliant I suspect we are living in the alternate history where it is true because of course: in World War I the British employ a secret Spirit Corps, to laypeople a team of women to raise soldiers' spirits but in reality a team of mediums who fucking GATHER INTELLIGENCE FROM FALLEN SOLDIERS. That's right, they're women who talk to ghosts. Ghost talkers, if you will.But Kowal doesn't stop there: besides all the cool military

I received this book through NetGalley. It will be released on August 16th, 2016.This was one of my most-anticipated books this year, and it lived up to my expectations. Ghost Talkers is historical fiction and fantasy at its finest, weaving the use of mediums and ghosts into World War I's brutal trench warfare. Ginger is a strong, savvy heroine, a woman who refused to be confined by social standards of her time. She plays a pivotal role in the war effort by living through the last moments of

Ghost Talkers by Mary Robinette KowalGinger is a medium working in the top-secret Spirit Corps during WWI. Ghost Talkers is a blend of historical fiction, paranormal, and alternate history. The spirit corps has used magic--which is real but takes a paranormal bend--to bind soldiers' ID tags so that they report in after death and act as Ally spies. This means the Spirit Corps has allowed the Allies to gain an important advantage in WWI.I've not read Kowal before, but she blends historical fiction

Look at that cover! I admit it was the artwork that stopped me in my tracks when I first saw this book. Then came the blurb, and what a magnificent premise that was! An alternative history with fantasy elements? British fighting the Germans in WWI with the aid of mediums and spiritual intelligence? After reading the description I knew I had to put Ghost Talkers on my immediate tbr. To be honest, I haven't been so excited to start a book in a while. If you like the genre, enjoy strong, likeable
