The Humility of Humans by Chrys CymriMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
C of E vicar Penny White has known about the magical country of Lloegyr for some months now and yet in many ways, it feels like years. She has become used to living alongside dragons, gryphons, werewolves, and a snail shark (to mention just a few) and is even married to dragon Raven. On a trip back Raven is attacked by men in a helicopter and they only just make it back to safety. As part of that trip, Penny made some major decisions to face the consequences of her actions with all parties - marrying Raven has certainly complicated her relationship with the Church and Bishop Aeron plus there’s renewed danger from Cadw ar Wahânas the secretive group takes new action against those who dare to find love outside their own species. Now it is becoming clear that the British government is rounding up all refugees stuck there from Lloegyr and putting them into detention centres and her family have had to go into hiding. It seems that the rat kings are involved if only she can work out how. Can she find a way to save everyone she loves?
This was the last book in the series and was certainly full of plenty of revelations and we finally managed to work out a few things. I loved the way that the final resolutions in the story all centred on how people could be trusted to do the right thing and that people power was far more important than the opinions of those in power and their hidden agendas. I felt quite tearful at the end of some well known and loved characters as well as punching in the air with delight at the way that some parts of the drama ended (especially around one of the major buildings in central London. I loved the way it ended although I am also heartbroken that the series has ended. Well written, easy to read and understand. Surely this has to be made into some kind of a film as I can see some of the messages in this being great for children to see and experience (as well as all the fantastic creatures).
