Set in a Regency England with a large population of dragons. This is book ten of Maria Grace's Jane Austen's Dragons series.
If you choose to read the entire series, the order should be; book four, A Proper Introduction to Dragons, then books one, two, three, five, six, seven, eight and nine.
Elizabeth and Fitzwilliam Darcy are senior officers of the Blue Order.
Sir Fitzwilliam Darcy, knight of the Pendragon Order, has sworn to “protect and serve the interests of the Blue Order and dragonkind”.
Elizabeth is the Dragon Sage, respected by dragons and keepers for her skills and insight into dragon health, culture and psychology.
In this book the Darcys and their entourage, gratefully return home to Pemberley after the traumatic events of book eight.
Unfortunately, there is a great deal amiss in Derbyshire.
A black-market trade in dragon body parts, has lead to poachers preying on dragons.
Sir Richard Fitzwilliam has been tasked to investigate and chooses an unlikely ally, in Lydia Bennet, newly released from Blue Order reform school.
The discovery of an injured dragon on Pemberley grounds, reveals the attacks are disturbingly close to home.
Simultaneously, the Darcys are having to deal with a Blue Order bureaucrat, looking to find fault in the running of Pemberley and other dragon estates in Derbyshire.
To add to the pressure on Lady Elizabeth, her dragon-deaf mother and sisters are insisting on visiting Pemberley (a home where half the staff are dragons, who appear to the dragon-deaf as various animals)
Young dragon, Viscountess Pemberley is determined to take her place in protecting all the dragons on the estate and surprises the Darcys with the progress she is making.
This latest chapter in the series combines intrigue, peril, burgeoning romance and exceedingly vexing relations, both Bennet and Fitzwilliam!
I would recommend it to all fans of JAFF and fantasy.
This whole series is narrated by Benjamin Fife. His narration is very good, his voice warm and pleasing to listen to. His female voices are convincing and his dragon voices are excellent.
I look forward to more from Maria Grace.
I received a free copy of this audiobook via StoryOrigin and am voluntarily leaving a review. All views expressed are my own.
