But the magic part was there to have some little fun but also to kind of exaggerate some of the things that are going on in the time periods and also kind of help me illuminate some of the Reconstruction era of the 1870s, of Philadelphia, and make it a little bit fun with a little bit - there's a little bit of magic in there.

GLOVER: It's very much like our world, a little bit of our history. Walk us through this world that you created. GARCIA-NAVARRO: There's something for everyone in this - magic, history, mystery, suspense. To take us into this world of "The Conductors" is the author, Nicole Glover. Here, in this story, they use magic, though, to solve mysteries, murders and crimes involving Black residents that often go overlooked by local authorities. In post-Civil War Philadelphia, we meet Hetty and Benjy, a married couple working as conductors in the Underground Railroad, guiding enslaved people from the South to freedom in the north.
It is also a fantasy geek's dream history novel. "The Conductors" is a history buff's dream fantasy novel.
