Ooo… this is a series I need to reconnect with. It’s on my list! I have read a number of these books – but let it lapse. So I need more Peter Grant goodness in my life:)). Thank you for sharing, Proxy.

I have two to catch up on too! Although I already own the eighth book and not the seventh which is, I think, where I went wrong! 😄

Ah… it’s always easy to go a bit astray when working your way through a longer series. To be honest, I’ve got to check through my records to discover which was the last book I read.
