The Kat, Incorrigible series continues to be a favorite. Proper Regency setting and hilarious dialog between Kat and her charismatic older siblings, recently married Elissa, soon-to-be-married Angeline (a witch), and reformed reprobate brother Charles, adds to the madcap magical adventures as Kat tries to practice her magic and finally be initiated into the secret magical society the Order of the Guardians, her birthright from her dead mother. Oh, there are dastardly forces at play, Lady Frotherington's barely-kept-in-check hatred for both Kat and her late mother, the grasping, malice-filled Mrs. Carlyle, Angeline's future mama-in-law and current mistress of the magnificent Hepworth Park who is desperate to end her son and heir's engagement, and the mysterious appearance of the glamorous Marquise de Valmont, outranking every aristocrat at Hepworth and who Kat swears looks like her dead mother. Meanwhile, a store of portals to the secret lair of the Order of the Guardians have been stolen and someone is trying to frame Kat as the thief and traitor, once and for all ruining her chances of joining the order, learning more about her magical abilities, and ruining her family forever. Excellent fun, highly recommended, but don't read this third tale without reading the first two Kat, Incorrigible and Renegade Magic. Myself, I am beyond happy to see that there is indeed a fourth adventure, jumping ahead to when Kat is 18 Courting Magic, that I am immediately ordering!
