About this listen
Duels, magic, and plenty of ghosts await in The Mystery at Dunvegan Castle, the third book of T. L. Huchu's USA Today bestselling Edinburgh Nights series.
Everyone’s favorite fifteen-year-old ghostalker, Ropa, arrives at the worldwide Society of Skeptical Enquirers’ biennial conference just in time to be tied into a mystery—a locked room mystery, if an entire creepy haunted castle on lockdown counts. One of the magical attendees has stolen a valuable magical scroll.
Caught between Qozmos, the high wizard of Ethiopian magic; the larger-than-life Lord Sashvindu Samarasinghe; England’s Sorcerer Royal; and Scotland’s own Edmund MacLeod, it’s up to Ropa (and Jomo and Priya) to sort through the dangerous secret politics and alliances to figure out what really happened. But she has a special tool—the many ghosts tied to the ancient, powerful castle.

Story
Opal is a lot of things—orphan, high school dropout, full-time cynic and part-time cashier—but above all, she's a determined to find a better life for her younger brother Jasper. One that gets them out of Eden, Kentucky, a town remarkable for only two things: bad luck and E. Starling, the reclusive nineteenth century author of The Underland, who disappeared over a hundred years ago. All she left behind were dark rumors—and her home. Everyone agrees that it’s best to ignore the uncanny mansion and its misanthropic heir, Arthur. Almost everyone, anyway.

Story
Once upon a time, in the magical land of San Francisco, there lived a not-so-ordinary girl named Laurel Pettigrew. She was supposed to be the Chosen One. The plan was simple: She would vanquish the great evil Tybus in an epic battle. But destiny had other ideas, and Laurel's performance in the whole heroics department was a colossal flop. Now, instead of being a legendary hero, Laurel's the resident pariah of the magic realm. And what’s worse, the dark wizard Tybus swooped in, took over the realm, and forced all supernatural creatures to live under his tyrannical rule.

Librarian Sylvia Ashe knows nothing about her past, having grown up without a father and a mother who refused to discuss him. When she stumbles upon a diary that suggests she's descended from magicians, she's skeptical. After all, magicians are special, and she's just an ordinary woman who loves books. She seeks answers from a member of the most prominent family of magicians, but she quickly learns that finding the truth won't be easy, especially when he turns out to be as artless as her, and more compelling and dangerous than books.

Once, there were four worlds, nestled like pages in a book, each pulsing with fantastical power and connected by a single city: London. Until the magic grew too fast and forced the worlds to seal the doors between them in a desperate gamble to protect their own. The few magicians who could still open the doors grew more rare as time passed and now, only three Antari are known in recent memory—Kell Maresh of Red London, Delilah Bard of Grey London, and Holland Vosijk, of White London.

Story
Katarina Ashowan was not made for courtly life. Sure, her father is the famous house witch of Daxaria so she was raised among majestic castles, proper manners, and royal expectations. But Kat is also a mutated witch whose power aligns predominantly with fire. She’s more comfortable riding horses or learning to fight than she is making polite conversation and wearing fancy dresses. Which is why her upcoming assignment—serving her best friend, Alina, the soon-to-be crowned Troivackian queen—is anything but ideal.

In the world’s most magical metropolis where spirits run noodle shops and cash-strapped dragons stage photo-ops for tourists, people still think fairies are nothing but stories, and that’s exactly how the fairies like it. It’s a lot easier to feast on humanity’s dreams when no one believes you exist. But while this arrangement works splendidly for most fair folk, Lola isn’t one of the lucky ones.

Miss Mildred Percy is a spinster. She does not dance, she has long stopped dreaming, and she certainly does not have adventures. That is, until her great uncle has the audacity to leave her an inheritance, one that includes a dragon’s egg. The egg—as eggs are wont to do—decides to hatch, and Miss Mildred Percy is suddenly thrust out of the role of “spinster and general wallflower” and into the unprecedented position of “spinster and keeper of dragons.” But England has not seen a dragon since…well, ever.

I missed so much
I am seven hour into this and I remain confused. There are numerous indistinguishable characters that have added to that confusion. I really enjoyed the first two books. T.L. Huchu's writing easily transports me to the Isle of Skye. I am deeply impressed by the author. I am imagining the author intends this confusion in order to wrap things up as the end nears with a twist and a few surprises.
Imagine my surprise when I get to the end of the audiobook and realize there was a summary of people and places. I wish that would have been made available as a PDF. It would have illuminated so much.
Ultimately, I enjoyed the book though it took far too long to get to the point. So many tangents that seemed to dull my interest rather than excite my anticipation. I know there will be a book four but I think I'm done for awhile.

A Rollicking Adventure
The Mystery at Dunvegan Castle was one of my most anticipated books of the year and it lived up to expectations. I’m not a reader who needs to be shocked by the final twist in a mystery. What I want is to enjoy the ride all along the way and once again T L Huchu has given me that gift. I had such a good time! This is a bit of an unusual locked room mystery and there are a number of viable suspects. Our heroine is brave, fallible, and slightly less likely to leap without looking…slightly. Regardless, she is as sharp tongued and quick witted, and well voiced, by Kimberly Mandindo, as ever. I can’t wait for the next book.

Entertaining but Disappointing
This is a very well-written book that gives Ropa along with characters from the two previous novels an entertaining problem to solve -- the locked room mystery -- and includes class and social commentary without sacrificing plot or suspense. The story hurtles along and is entertaining, with surprises at multiple turns. Ropa's funny dry wit is fully in evidence and as with the other books, the world-building is rich and imaginative.
And that's about all that's good about it. It becomes obvious in the last third of the book that ONLY the locked room mystery is going to get addressed and indeed that's what happens -- the bare minimum in terms of conclusion. Everything else about Ropa and her situation is left hanging, with no answers. Additionally in the final pages all three novel's worth of character and world-building, the emotional investment readers have in Ropa's life and situation, are basically thrown in the fire.
I'm not sure what the author was thinking or trying to do - invert / subvert expectations by taking Ropa's story in an entirely -- and I mean ENTIRELY -- different direction? Show that the world is a dark and cynical place and you can't fight the system even if you are a hero? I have no idea. Ropa's story certainly can continue; the groundwork for that clearly has been laid here. However I'm not sure I really care anymore.
I know I don't read fantasy novels for this. I don't invest in characters and worlds over multiple books for this. If I wanted defeatist 'everything is horrible and nothing matters' nihlism I'd pick up a newspaper; I don't need or want it from the entertainment on which I'm spending money.
