Aunt Dimity Slays the DragonBy Nancy Atherton
Viking, 2009. 232 pgs. Mystery
Lori Shepherd and her fellow English villagers of Finch find their tranquil little hamlet overrun by a traveling Renaissance Festival this summer—otherwise known as King Wilfred’s Faire. Wary at first, the villagers soon become enamored of the medieval delights of jousting, feasting, and general merrymaking. They all submit their costuming requests of peasant, lord or knight to be made up and attend the Ren Fest with daily interest and attired just as the performers. However, it appears that someone has taken a disliking to good King Wilfred and the numerous accidents that befall his highness are too many to be deemed merely accidental. Someone’s head is going to roll and Lori fears it just might be the good king's. So with her magical journal and Aunt Dimity’s help, she sets out to find the rouge and begins her own joust with adventure.
