"Backpacking through Bedlam (InCryptid)" by Seanan McGuire
https://www.amazon.com/dp/0756418577/

Book number twelve of a twelve book urban dark fantasy series. I read
the well printed and well bound trade paperback published by DAW in
2023 that I bought new from Amazon. There are several other Crossroads
books and short stories in the Incryptid universe. I will purchase
future books in the series when they are released.

Alice Price-Healy has found her husband, Thomas Price, after looking for
him for fifty years since the Crossroads collected on his debt and sent
him to another universe. Now they are back from distributing the 300
people from the collapsing pocket universe that Thomas Price was dumped
into by the Crossroads. And of course, there is a new crisis that needs
their attention, the Covenant of St. George has four teams in New York
City that are trying to kill all of the incryptids there. Especially
the 300 ton male dragon in the depths of Manhatten island who may be the
last male dragon in the world.

There is a excellent short story at the end giving a picture of how the hundreds of Aeslin mice live in the Portland Price household. The house
is designed for the Aeslin mice to easily move in the walls from room to
room and story to story.

Note: Even though the author and I share the same middle and last name,
I paid for my book and was not compensated for my review. I have no
idea if we are directly related.

My rating: 4.4 out of 5 stars
Amazon rating: 4.7 out of 5 stars (770 reviews)
