The Vengeance of Snails by Chrys CymriMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
Penny's life has certainly not been dull since finding out about the country of Lloegyr where magical creatures live and she is a liaison between her diocese and the country. Her household has expanded to include a family of gryphons, a snail shark (who sing's hymns) and she sees her fried Raven regularly (who is a dragon). She does have one large secret - she is the one who killed the mother of Clyde (the snail shark) with a shovel and has never told him. However the mystical country does have dangers - in Fact Penny's brother James is still recovering from an incident. This book is the story of Clyde, his interaction with the other snail sharks in Lloegyr and what happens.
Wow - this book was very dramatic and contained a large amount of drama and action. There was so much danger in places but Penny was her usual self and her faith helped her to remain fearless. She kept her humanity and determination to make sure that all creatures were treated the same and that there were no underclasses. It was lovely to read some of her conversations with the various creatures that were not behaving the way she thought was right and fair. Peter became her fiance and struck me as a bit of an enigma not having the same values as Penny - so I'm still going to hold out for the home that she will end up with the person who truly loves her - Raven. Great read that will keep you as addicted as I was.
