Lori Shepherd loves living in the small English village of
Finch, but as her eighth summer in the town approaches she
finds herself wishing for something exciting to spice up the
all-too-familiar routine. When King Wilfred's Faire opens
nearby, Lori gets her wish and more. The age of chivalry
lives again at the Renaissance fair. Wizards, wenches,
magicians, and minstrels cajole the fairgoers while lords
quaff, jesters joke, and knights battle in the joust arena.
But Lori discovers that it's not all pageantry and play.
A sinister figure is stalking the angel-voiced madrigal
singer. A jealous rival has sabotaged the Dragon Knight's
weapons. And an evil assassin is trying to murder Good King
Wilfred. With Aunt Dimity's otherworldly guidance, Lori
races to save her dear village and risks her neck to keep
the medieval revelry from ending in tragedy.
Aunt Dimity Slays the Dragon is another gem in
Atherton's perennially beloved cozy series, sure to enchant
her many loyal fans and attract new ones.
