Publisher's summary

Kim McDougall presents the prequel and first book in her Valkyrie Bestiary series:

Three Half Goats Gruff: Who is the mysterious captain of the Guardians? Kyra Greene, pest controller of fantastic beasts, takes on a rock troll and meets the man who will haunt her dreams for the next 321 nights.

Come sing around the campfire with satyrs, and discover how Kyra found one little lost cephalopod who will win your heart.

Dragons Don't Eat Meat: Someone is killing dragons. And the killings point to a civil war brewing among the fae. When Kyra Greene finds an abandoned baby dragon, she doesn't want to bring him home. But until she can hunt down his thunder and stop the dragon killers, she's on babysitting duty.

Along with a quirky cast of misfits and unruly critters, Kyra leaves the safety of Montreal Ward and travels through the dangerous Inbetween - the land beyond the protected city states, where magic is the only rule of law. Can she reunite the lost dragon with his thunder and stop a new and sinister force from invading their home?

Loved it!

This was a fresh take on urban fantasy and I really enjoyed it. The main character is someone I would love to hang out with and all the different magical creatures really made the story for me. I hope the other books will be made into audiobooks and that the same narrator will be used. I'm looking forward to more adventures with Kyra!

Funny!

Kyra is a pest controller with a menagerie of her own. After one job, she is relocating the creature and stumbles upon a thunder of dragons. Poachers have them colllared and looking for magic. After saving them and setting them free, one baby is left behind. Mason, the gargoyle she has been not thinking about (ha) for the last year gets involved and offers his help to find the thunder while waiting for his magical gemstone. The journey takes them through a magical area that is very dangerous and then back to deal with a Fae queen. I thought this was a wonderful look into many different creatures you don’t hear of often enough! A banshee for a roommate, a couple of gargoyles on her journey, a dervish and many more! The book has the right amount of humor - I could not stop giggling at the narrator yelling gobble gobble!!! There is action, hints at possible romance and again lots of humor. I will starting the next book very soon!

great story!

so excited to have found your books! I'm currently on dervishes Don't dance ( audiobooks) and absolutely love it! Hollie Jackson is a great narrator and really brings out the characters! I love Kyra and her Love of All creatures and her fierceness! I adore Jacoby and all the "critters" . Mason is a mysterious hunk.
