Summary
One man is on a journey to unravel his magical lineage in the next spellbinding novel of the Whimbrel House series by Amazon Charts and Wall Street Journal bestselling author Charlie N. Holmberg.
Thanks to house tamer Hulda Larkin, the mischief infesting Whimbrel House has calmed. But if Hulda’s job is done, what does that mean for Merritt Fernsby, inheritor of the remote Narragansett Bay estate, who’s only now coming to terms with his enchanted place in the world?
Merritt has realized his own burgeoning powers, which draw the thoughts of every plant, insect, and dog. His nights are sleepless, with an uncontrollable cacophony of voices that compel a long-overdue search into his uncanny bloodline. It’s not the only puzzle uniting Merritt and his ex-housekeeper, Hulda. Her friend and former employer at the Boston Institute for the Keeping of Enchanted Rooms has disappeared. Hulda herself is up for the now-vacant position of institute director, and her rival for the role is a stranger who’s suspiciously curious about Whimbrel House—and could have connections to an old foe.
As Merritt struggles to face his estranged family and Hulda dives into the institute’s secrets, the two are brought intimately closer than ever into the mysteries of wizardry, chaos, and love.

Magical, funny, heartwarming story
I loved this audio book. The narration is so different from other I’ve listened to, with a male and female voice. The story line is great set in a world where magic is waning in the 1800s. The characters have grown as the story has progressed. No swearing which is a huge plus! I can’t wait to see what happens next.

A fun cozy-ish sequel!
Enjoyed as much as the first book. Great if your looking for something without gore or horror but with a bit of suspense!

Excellent sequel!
This is such an interesting series and I'm looking forward to the next part of the story. I don't know how historically accurate it is about life in the US in the 1840s, but I can take things at face value considering the genre is fantasy. Love the idea that even in the mid 19th century you can have soup and a sandwich for lunch in a restaurant!

Another great instalment from Charlie
I’m so happy I continued with this trilogy, Ms Holmberg is right up there with my favourite authors. I’ve listened to a lot of her work, and read others, and I’ve enjoyed them all. This is a great story, with a great magic system, and I’m looking forward to the third.

What happened?!?
Utterly disappointed with this sequel… I loved the first book and had really high hopes for number two. Talk about nose dive! It was so boring and uninspiring I could barely make it to the end.
