Like any good second book in a trilogy, Miss Percy's Travel Guide to Welsh Moors and Feral Dragons, by Quenby Olson, is a bit dark. While traveling to Wales (and now IN Wales), Miss Percy, Mr. Wiggand, and Mrs. Barrington have been abandoned by someone they trusted (who also stole food and money). The one person they were told to seek out is dead, but fortunately, his wife agrees to take them in. Her interest, and help, is increased once another egg has hatched (it was thought to be a fake, a decorative item for the mantle, but Fitz new better! As they search for Nyth Y Ddraig (nest of Dragons) they encounter mobs (helpful and otherwise) and a nasty young couple who believe Fitz belongs to them and will do anything to get him back. Adventure at it's best! (Especially if you love dragons)! This A Miss Percy Guide: Book Two.

Alas, I had to skip the book previous to Fortune Hunter in the Miss Fortune Mystery books by Jana Deleon (at some point I will have to get an ereader ... but not yet). Still, this was a most enjoyable read, with one loud and unexpected laugh out loud moment! It starts out rather grim ... someone is scamming local, older women ... playing up a possible romance with a soldier overseas. However, he knows too much about these locals, so Swamp Team 3 think he's a local and when one of the little old ladies turns up dead (possibly because she could expose him) their investigation ramps up. Another great addition to this series.
