About this audiobook
Someone or something has murdered the goose who laid the golden eggs, and the evidence points to a dragon named Scratch. Zoe and Logan are back on the case-but this mystery won't be that easy to solve . . .
Tui T. Sutherland
Tui T. Sutherland & Kari Sutherland are sisters and best friends, and if you can’t tell by looking at them which one is older, Tui certainly isn’t going to tell you. They grew up in South America, traveling a lot and moving several times (and they’re still only about 80 percent certain that their parents weren’t secret agents). Kari now lives in California, while Tui lives in Boston, but they use every excuse they can to see each other (like, say, writing a book together).

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I love this book it’s my favorite in the series. it is one of my favorite book I’ve ever read .?
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5This was the second book in a trilogy. The story is full of mythical creatures. The adventure was right on for the suggested age group the story was written for. The author did an awesome job of making the juvenile characters the heroes of the story. I will be reading the last book in this trilogy.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5The goose that laid the golden eggs has been murdered and the prime suspect is the dragon, Scratch. Logan, Zoe, and Blue believe he is innocent and they have only a few days to find the real culprit before the trial occurs and Scratch is convicted and executed. This is a fantastic sequel to The Menagerie. I can't wait to read the third book to find out who is trying to sabotage the menagerie.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Interesting series
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I read The Menagerie for review when it came out last year and really enjoyed it. I was excited to see that the next book in the series had come out. This is a story full of mythical creatures and mystery and I really enjoyed it.Something...or someone has killed the goose that laid golden eggs (one of the main sources of the Menagerie’s funding). Evidence is pointing to a dragon named Scratch who has had some mysterious behavior lately. However, Logan and Zoe aren’t convinced and they are absolutely determined to prove that Scratch is innocent. There is more at stake here than Scratch’s life, if the Menagerie shows that it can’t control its animals then it might be shut down for good.This was a well done middle grade fantasy with lots of humor, some mystery, and tons of cryptozoology. I continue to enjoy this series about a secret compound that serves as a sanctuary for mythological animals.I also continue to enjoy the characters. Logan is not as lonely as in the first book and is continuing to enjoy spending time with Zoe and her crazy family. Blue is in the story a bit too, but not as much as he was in the first book. There is the addition of an incredibly humorous character named Marcus, who happens to be a wererooster….yeah kind of sucks to be him.The plot has a few twists and turns (most of them were fairly predictable for me). Of course SNAPA is involved again. All the events are mainly leading up to a trial for the dragon Scratch and proving whether or not he is guilty in the killing of Pelly the Golden Goose. There is also some addition to the plot involving the disappearance of Logan’s mother. Overall this was a fun read, with an excellent mystery to be solved, some fascinating creatures, and engaging/likable characters. I really enjoy the cryptozoology in here and the humor. I would recommend to middle grade readers who enjoy humor and fantasy (and to adults who like to read fun middle grade fantasy). The book has been described as a combination of Brandon Mull’s Fablehaven and Carl Hiaasen’s humor and that is a pretty accurate description of this series.
