Let It Crow! Let It Crow! Let It Crow! (Meg Langslow Mysteries Book 34) Kindle Edition

'Tis the season for sleuthing in Donna Andrews' cheery new addition to the New York Times bestselling Meg Langslow series.

Meg has been roped into participating in a weaponsmithing competition, a Forged in Fire wannabe organized by a blacksmith friend. Meg originally turned down an invitation to participate, but the night before the filming starts, someone attacks Faulk, her blacksmithing mentor, breaking his arm and eliminating him from the contest before it begins. Meg agrees to step in as his replacement to keep the project from failing. She's not thrilled that the filming will take place during December – Christmas is already a crazy time for her. Since the competition is taking place on Ragnarshjem, the picturesque estate that her friend Ragnar, the retired heavy metal drummer, is turning into a Goth castle, Meg won’t have to spend Christmas alone and gets to bring Michael and her twin sons with her.

So Meg joins the cast, to the dismay of several old-school blacksmiths who think women have no place in the profession anyway. And if the show's producers were hoping for drama, they're in luck. The blacksmithing world is a small one, and some of the contestants arrived already laden with grudges and feuds.

It's a high-stakes, cutthroat competition between people who wield large hammers and make swords and have forges full of fire at their disposal. What could possibly go wrong?

I've been writing since I learned to print, but didn't get published until Murder with Peacocks won the Malice Domestic/St. Martins Press Best First Traditional Mystery contest in spring 1998. Since then I've written six more comic mysteries books featuring ornamental blacksmith Meg Langslow: Murder with Puffins (2000), Revenge of the Wrought Iron Flamingos (2001), Crouching Buzzard, Leaping Loon (2003), We'll Always Have Parrots (2004), Owls Well That Ends Well (2005), and No Nest for the Wicket (August 2006). I've also started another series in with the sleuth, Turing Hopper, is an artificial intelligence personality living inside a corporate computer: You've Got Murder (2002), Click Here for Murder (2003), Access Denied (2004), and Delete All Suspects (2005).

Reality Show and Murder at Christmas
It’s the week before Christmas, but Meg has gotten roped into the reality show Blades of Glory! that is being filmed in the area. She just wanted to be working behind the scenes, but when someone attacks her mentor, who was supposed to be a competitor, she has to step in at the last minute as a contestant even though bladesmithing isn’t her specialty. But when another contestant is murdered, Meg begins to wonder if she is safe or if someone is out to do away with all their competition.Yes, this is a Christmas entry in the series. While it may not quite seem like it from the teaser, we still get plenty of Christmas spirit on these pages, and I enjoyed some of the twists the set up brought us. It helps that we see many of the regular characters, and they are charming as always. I did find one of the other contestants to be very one dimensional. I get we weren’t supposed to like the guy, but did he have to be that much of a cliché? There is plenty going on to keep us reading, including set up, before the body drops, and I was never bored. However, the climax was weaker than it could have been, even though all our questions are answered. No matter when you read this entry, you’ll enjoy another Christmas with Meg.

The story was entertaining as all the Meg Langslow mysteries are. I just thought the unveiling of the murderer was very contrived. It was like she looked at the length of the book and said "Oh, I need to end it now." I hope the next one is better.

Another fine addition to the Meg Langslow mystery series! I always enjoy how Donna Andrews melds humor with murder mysteries. Her characters are always fun, especially Meg's revolving cast of friends and family. I especially liked this particular story because it allowed us to see Meg's blacksmithing skills. I definitely would recommend this book!

Another great read from Donna Andrews. This one kept me guessing until the end. The descriptions make you feel as though you are right there. I always learn something new about the animals, birds, or insects featured in each book. While trying to solve the mystery along with Meg, you are entertained by her extended family and wonderful friends. I am looking forward to the next book.

I'm a years-long fan of Andrews' Meg Langslow series but this one is especially wonderful. Meg's kind compassionate nature is highlighted in this mystery and I really was surprised about "who done it." I am rereading it after trying three other cozies by other authors that ended up in the donation basket after 5-20 pages. I hope Andrews never runs out of birds to educate us about and that she'll keep on writing this series well into her nineties!
