Kedrigern and the Charming Couple

Summary: Fun and Fantasy in one slim volume
Review: Kedrigern and the Charming Couple is the 4th of the 5 novels that John Morressy has written about the wizard Kedrigern and his beautiful wife Princess.

If you like fantasy and you enjoy having your funny bone tickled, you will like these books. They don't HAVE to be read in order, but they are even more fun if you know the whole story.

Kedrigern, is a young wizard, only around 170 years, and he positively hates travelling. It never fails that he must go out and travel to help former clients. This particular book deals with lycanthropy - and Kedrigern and Princess are catapulted into an adventure involving not one, but two werewolves - both of whom are looking to Kedrigern as their last and only hope of a cure! Will Keddie and Princess be able to rescue their two clients, and before the next full moon?

Summary: Fourth and getting better!
Review: This is the fourth Kedrigern book by John Morressy, the first three being A Voice for Princess, The Questing of Kedrigern and Kedrigern in Wanderland. In this installment, Kedrigern is summoned to assist an old client whose daughter has been become a werewolf. Desperate to find a cure before the next full moon, Keddy sets out to a remote monastery that has a book that might contain a cure, leaving Princess to care for the unfortunate sufferer. As Kedrigern wrestles with the sinister events transpiring at the monastery, Princess is forced to flee the amorous attentions of the old client and finds herself in the clutches of an evil sorcerer, the Black Jester.

This book is a crowning masterpiece to the series so far. Here Mr. Morressey succeeds in adding a good deal more suspense than was in the previous books. I was a little unhappy with the conclusion of the monastery problem, but overall, it was a great book. 2 thumbs up!
