Can a machine find the one person you were meant to love?
In this cozy fantasy romance, an impoverished young gentleman turns his talent for stage magic into a profession just as a strange green mouse, a young artist, and an eccentric experiment in psychic matchmaking begin rearranging the romantic lives around him. The theory behind the Green Mouse is wonderfully simple: every person is connected to one predestined lover by an invisible psychic current—and the right machine can find the person waiting at the other end.
Part cozy fantasy and part fantasy romance, The Green Mouse unfolds through courtship, family schemes, unlikely meetings, magical performances, summer society, romantic misunderstandings, and an increasingly ambitious apparatus designed to take chance out of love. Its fantasy remains rooted in ordinary life rather than an epic secondary world, giving the story the lighter emotional climate of a low-stakes fantasy romance while allowing its impossible matchmaking system to drive the relationships forward.
This rewritten public-domain adaptation of Robert W. Chambers's novel preserves the Green Mouse Society, the Destyn-Carr apparatus, the comic pseudoscience, the magical performances, the interconnected courtships, and the romantic structure of the original story while presenting them through newly rewritten prose.
For readers looking for a cozy fantasy romance with psychic matchmaking, destined lovers, gentle romantic comedy, eccentric inventions, stage magic, and a fantasy premise built around finding exactly the right person, The Green Mouse offers an unusual variation on magical matchmaking and romantic fate.
