Flora Segunda
Teaser on the inside cover of the hardcover version of Flora Segunda by Ysabeau
S. Wilce-
Flora Fyrdraaca knows taking shortcuts in Crackpot Hall can be risky. After all, when a
House has eleven thousand decaying rooms that shift about at random, there's no
telling where a person might end up. But it's not just household confusion that vexes
Flora, what with Mamma always away being Commanding General of the Army, Poppy
drowning his sorrows in drink, and Crackpot Hall too broken down to magickally
provide the clean towels and hot waffles that are a Fyrdraaca's birthright.
Yet Flora is nothing if not a Girl of Spirit. So when she takes a forbidden shortcut and
stumbles upon her family's biggest secret - Valefor, the banished Butler - she and her
best friend Udo plunge happily into the grand adventure of restoring Valefor to his
rightful (or so he says) position. If only Flora knew that meddling with a magickal being
can go terribly awry-and that soon she will have to find a way to restore herself before it
is Too Late.

Being the Magickal Mishaps of a Girl of Spirit, Her Glass-Gazing Sidekick, Two
Ominous Butlers (One Blue), a House with Eleven Thousand Rooms, and a Red Dog
Review by Jack (Concord MA USA, 13)-
Flora Fyrdraaca is almost turning fourteen, the age where all Fyrdraaca's join the
military. It's a family tradition that Flora is intent on evading, but how? When the need to
return a library book on time causes her to use a shortcut, Flora meets the house's
banished butler and decides to find a way to free him. Teeming up with her fashion -
savvy friend Udo, she hunts high and low for a way to free the banished butler who
incessantly complains and moans about seemingly everything, and who might have a
way to release Flora from the family tradition.
I would rate this book 4/5 Stars because it had a great plot, and yet the names and
places were very confusing and tough to keep track of. I thought that Ysabeau S. Wilce
had great narrative voice because she told the story from Flora's standpoint. I especially
liked her descriptions of the house: Crackpot hall. I would suggest this book to anyone
who wanted a book with lots if action and different plots that eventually tie into each
other!
