I love a good Jacky romp but this story seemed to start loosing the flavor of the others. ( ) I recently read in a review that one way to relate to the length of the series is to see it as a bunch of tall tales. That works for me! Jacky is embroiled in the Peninsula War, Goya's studio, and a little time out in a Romani camp. The usual... Kellgren is great at voices and is a decent singer also. Description: The vivacious Jacky Faber returns in the tenth tale in L. A. Meyer's Bloody Jack Adventures, a rip-roaring young-adult series applauded for its alluring combination of adventure, romance, history, and humor. Once again under the thumb of British Intelligence, Jacky is sent to Spain to spy for the Crown during the early days of the nineteenth-century Peninsular War. She finds herself in the company of guerrilla freedom fighters, poses for the famous artist Goya, runs with the bulls, is kidnapped by the Spanish Inquisition, and travels with a caravan of gypsies- all while hoping to one day reunite with her beloved Jaimy Fletcher. Thoughts: Another subpar Jacky Faber. Jacky should just stay at sea- her adventures on land tend to bore me. This one wasn't as terrible as My Bonny Light Horseman, but almost nothing seemed to actually happen except for some wandering around, bumping into a couple of notable characters, and... magic mushrooms. Soooo excited that Jacky is headed back to Boston in Boston Jacky! I love the Boston characters and I'm even looking forward to her reunion with Jaimy.
