Another excellent book by Marie Brennan! I found myself once again falling in love with The characters and this engaging world. While this book started out a little slower than I would have preferred, it didn't take long for me to once again become wrapped up in the adventures and excitement.

Attentive readers are already familiar with how a bookish young woman named Isabella first set out on the historic course that would lead her to becoming the world s premier dragon naturalist. Three years after her journey through Vystrana, the illustrious (and occasionally scandalous) Lady Trent defies convention to embark on an expedition to the war-torn continent of Eriga, home of the legendary swamp-wyrm. Accompanied by an old associate and a runaway heiress, Isabella must brave oppressive heat, palace intrigues, gossip, and other hazards in order to satisfy her fascination with all things draconian, even if it means venturing deep into the forbidden jungle known as the Green Hell... where her courage, resourcefulness, and scientific curiosity will be tested as never before.

Read for my 'Exceeds Expectations' N.E.W.T in History of Magic 2019 #magicalreadathon. Prompt - Read a book with a map. Career choice - Ministry of Magic, Department of Mysteries Worker. Nowhere near as good as the first instalment but still passable. Unsure whether I'm going to continue on with this series, hopefully this was just the 'second book slump' fantasy writers seem to go through.

More badass Victorian era lady scientist studying dragons in the middle of nowhere? Yes, please. And I'll happily read two more books of this. What? You're saying there are two more books? How lucky am I? The answer, very lucky, as these books are wonderful.
