The Unexpected Mr. Hopkins

The grande finale of the laugh-snort inducing, fantastical mystery-filled, and utterly mis-named Cassie Black Trilogy!

Morelli here. Cassie seems to find herself too busy eating pastries, breaking out of jail, and saving the Magic world (again) to bother with writing her own book description, so she's fobbed the chore off on me.

Some people, am I right?

Anyway, Black refuses to let me see a single page of the manuscript, but since I was there for most of the story, I can tell you this book is going to be full of . . .

Eager-for-battle ghosts, misbehaving tower ravens, on-call dragons, spell-crafting elves, rat-stomping trolls, a tiny bit of necromancy, and a very heroic (if I do say so myself) half-troll who just happens to like crochet and classic TV.

And even though this tale features a big old battle against evil, there's still plenty of Black's wry humor, fantastical mystery, and silly situations. (Because, okay, I did manage to sneak a peek at a draft of Black's manuscript . . . don't tell her).
