One of my favorite series. Who would have thought such quirky and funny things could happen at a Renaissance Faire Park? Pirates invade the local tavern, the brotherhood of the bread run the bakery, Merlin is flashing nude under his robes, Robin Hood and His Merry Men steal toaster ovens, fairies flit and flirt, Mother Goose nursery rhyme characters make trouble, The Queen and King and their court and knights rule the Faire, and no end of other slightly weird inhabitants enliven the paying visitors' day. Each book in the series has Jessie Morton apprenticing in a different shop to learn Medieval crafts for her PhD dissertation, in between her romance with the faire's bailiff, Chase Manhattan, and solving murder mysteries.
I like this series for the description of how a Renaissance Faire works as much as the mystery plot. Very authentic with regards to the types of folks at the Faire and some behind the scenes info too. The mystery this time was good as well. Very enjoyable book.

The third in the series......Mystical, "enchanted" or bewitched.....the daggers disappear and reappear around the Faire after the murder of their owner....I enjoyed this installment of Jessie and Chase's ongoing relationship better than the last...add into the fray..... a reappearance of Chase's ex fiance and his brother ...... I am looking forward to the next book in the series......
