The Red Necklace

The book is set during the French revolution. The main character, is a young gypsy with special magic abilities that allow him to throw his voice and read minds. He works with a dwarf Tetu, who has fostered him since his mother died. Yann and Tetu work for a magician, helping him perform in his acts. One night something goes wrong and Yann has to flee all alone. He meets a girl named Sido who is unwanted and unloved by everyone. I really enjouyed this book, it has a bit of mature content, but not much. Overall it is a really good book, and I liked how it touched on the French revolution as well.
