My least favourite in the series so far. The Welshman who knows everything was a fun character but never ended up doing much except providing exposition. I really didn't like how the narrative at times treated Emma as a prize Philip deserved to win. The fair was a nice change of pace, though it was too bad none of the book took place in Wales. The book has most of the usual charms of the series but bored me at times.
