Kilts & Kraken<\/a><\/em> (2012) Cindy Spencer Pape<\/a> (Gaslight Chronicles)<\/p>\n

\"Kilts<\/a>Set in Scotland in 1858<\/p>\n

Dr. Geneva MacKay has worked hard to become a physician, but will still occasionally help out her father, who believed in her and helped her reach her dreams.<\/p>\n

Magnus, Baron Findlay is the Laird of Torkholm Island, and tied intimately to the land, to provide protection for the island and the people. But when he is gravely injured by a kraken and found on the island of Mull, it it doesn’t seem likely he’ll survive, until a doctor is sent for Edinburgh to try and help him.<\/p>\n

It’s a fun little distraction, but neither sequel is as enjoyable as the first story.<\/p>\n
