Una Worms thinks nothing of putting out a salamander fire or soothing a feverish wyvern, and she is never, ever late for tea. At only 19, the youngest daughter of England's famous dragon-keeping family is also the one who keeps life running smoothly for everyone at the Royal Menagerie of British and Foreign Dragons. But when a mysterious villain infiltrates the menagerie-and even worse, Una's prodigal sister Violet appears unannounced-Una's tidy schedule is thrown into turmoil, and she will have to confront parts of her past she would rather forget. Meanwhile in London, restless suffragette Penny Fairweather stumbles across a story that could launch her journalistic career, even as her irritating civil servant brother, Crispin, is drawn into a thrilling shadow-realm of espionage. When both hit the trail of a dragon-obsessed secret society, the Fairweather siblings will have to decide which is more important: their ambitions, or their lifelong rivalry. Next in the much-loved world of Wormwood Abbey comes a new series from Christina Baehr, The Gilded Age of Dragons, set in a dazzling era where mythical creatures must compete with airships for the heart of a generation.
