Description
Duncan's back and the mysteries are piling up faster than empty bags of Dragon Delights!It's the Annual Unusual Circus Conference, and Duncan and the rest of Zin's troupe are in attendance. On the outskirts, of course, because Zin says it's cheaper that way.Duncan - dragon detective and omelet aficionado - is thrilled to be there, not only because it's his first time attending the overly commercial event but also because he's getting a chance to spend time with the lovely Viola.Only trouble is, Viola appears to prefer spending her time with a rather handsome dragon Duncan's never seen before. A situation that becomes even more worrisome when Viola turns up missing.But before Duncan (along with his fellow amateur sleuths Boris and Cordelia) can sift through the clues and rescue Viola from the dragon-napping clutches of Mr Handsome, they find themselves contending with...A satyr who's become obsessed with styling productsA flurry of fortune tellers giving vague adviceTransformational tea potsWigs of unusual sizeAnd a unicorn who's discovered that accidentally getting married might be the last thing he ever does.
Can Duncan, Cordelia, and Boris sort out everyone else's problems, bring Viola back, and survive several days of overt commercialism? Or will they get too distracted by omelets on sticks, buckets of donuts, and a new line of sparkly fedoras?Find out in Too Claws for Comfort, the latest addition to the Circus of Unusual Creatures Mysteries - a cozy fantasy series that mixes in laughs with murderous mayhem and mythical beasts.* * *Although it's the fifth book in the series, Too Claws for Comfort is a great place to jump into the humor-filled mysteries of The Circus of Unusual Creatures series. Set in a 1930s that's just a tad different than what you're used to, The Circus of Unusual Creatures is a delightfully humorous cozy fantasy series that features a detecting dragon, an aura-spotting centaur, a chain-smoking unicorn, and plenty of other quirky characters getting into all kinds of trouble as they stumble their way through clues, crimes, and perfectly cooked omelets.If you like comic fantasy whodunnits you'll love, not only this silly story, but also the first four books in the series: Hoard It All Before, Tipping the Scales, Fangs a Million, and Beast or Famine. Story Note: While this lighthearted series is mostly clean, it does have a lusty, chain-smoking unicorn who makes more than a few naughty innuendos, a dragon who drinks, a tiny bit of mild swearing, and (obviously) there's a murder or two along the way.
