Comments:

I recently (a month or so ago) finished Mary Robinette Kowal's Glamourist Histories.  I needed to read more of her work so I requested Ghost Talkers.

Mediums talk to all of Britain's forces as they pass and before they move on as a means of gathering intelligence.  This has the added benefit of  allowing the soldiers to take care of unfinished business and pass on final words to loved ones.

The fantasy aspect was great. The mystery aspect was intriguing.  The romance aspect is rather sad.  The altered historical aspect is interesting.
