Summary
Homecomings never live up to expectations.
After a visit to London that nearly cost her everything, Lady Elizabeth Darcy, Dragon Sage, desperately needs the solace of her country home, Pemberley. Sir Fitzwilliam Darcy, knight of the Pendragon Order and Keeper to Pemberley, counts the minutes until Pemerbley's walls protect his family once more.
Their homecoming cannot happen soon enough.
Pemberley and its substantial population of minor dragons welcomes them home with open arms. But those open arms contain more than happy dragons.
Unexpected problems plague the estate and surrounding county. Dragon-sized problems. Problems that might be too big for even the Dragon Sage.
A fresh new gaslamp fantasy adventure in the engrossingly intricate world of Jane Austen’s Dragons. Anne McCaffrey meets Jane Austen perfect for dragon lovers and Regency-era fans alike.

Thoroughly enjoyable.
Set in a Regency England with a large population of dragons. This is book ten of Maria Grace’s Jane Austen’s Dragons series.
If you choose to read the entire series, the order should be; book four, A Proper Introduction to Dragons, then books one, two, three, five, six, seven, eight and nine.
Elizabeth and Fitzwilliam Darcy are senior officers of the Blue Order.
Sir Fitzwilliam Darcy, knight of the Pendragon Order, has sworn to “protect and serve the interests of the Blue Order and dragonkind”.
Elizabeth is the Dragon Sage, respected by dragons and keepers for her skills and insight into dragon health, culture and psychology.
In this book the Darcys and their entourage, gratefully return home to Pemberley after the traumatic events of book eight.
Unfortunately, there is a great deal amiss in Derbyshire.
A black-market trade in dragon body parts, has lead to poachers preying on dragons.
Sir Richard Fitzwilliam has been tasked to investigate and chooses an unlikely ally, in Lydia Bennet, newly released from Blue Order reform school.
The discovery of an injured dragon on Pemberley grounds, reveals the attacks are disturbingly close to home.
Simultaneously, the Darcys are having to deal with a Blue Order bureaucrat, looking to find fault in the running of Pemberley and other dragon estates in Derbyshire.
To add to the pressure on Lady Elizabeth, her dragon-deaf mother and sisters are insisting on visiting Pemberley (a home where half the staff are dragons, who appear to the dragon-deaf as various animals)
Young dragon, Viscountess Pemberley is determined to take her place in protecting all the dragons on the estate and surprises the Darcys with the progress she is making.
This latest chapter in the series combines intrigue, peril, burgeoning romance and exceedingly vexing relations, both Bennet and Fitzwilliam!
I would recommend it to all fans of JAFF and fantasy.
This whole series is narrated by Benjamin Fife. His narration is very good, his voice warm and pleasing to listen to. His female voices are convincing and his dragon voices are excellent.
I look forward to more from Maria Grace.

A welcome return to Pemberley (or not?)
This book was enjoyable. There are funny moments and sweet moments, as well as some misunderstandings, and the action scenes were captivating. Lydia’s and Richard’s characters are explored more deeply in this book, but I felt that there was a lot more character development than plot development. I loved that Lydia is redeemed in this book, though.
This book ends on a cliffhanger, but (luckily) for readers who dislike cliffhangers, the next book is available in ebook and paperback. Benjamin Fife’s portrayal of the voices (dragon and human) was engaging as always. Recommended.

Brilliant adaptation
Another brilliant story in this series. WE catch up with Darcy. Elizabeth.Lydia. Richard and lets not forget Pemberley. On returning home they find that all is not well and they also have Mr. St John with them an overly officious member of the order who no one likes. They must now get the estate in order deal with dragon poachers and last but far for least Elizabeth and Lydia's mother.
This story ahas plenty of intrigue and danger and held my attention from start to finish.
The narration is excellent

Fantastic!
I can’t get enough of this series. Every book is fantastic. This one, like all the others, was captivating from beginning to end. There is suspense, intrigue and action, but there are also family issues and estate problems. I enjoyed it immensely.
