Lumby's Bounty

by Gail Fraser

Book Overview

Tucked into the foothills of the Rockies lies the charming village of Lumby, where quirky but tolerant townsfolk usually make the best of any situation. Not a week goes by without some humorous mayhem occurring under the watchful eyes of the mayor, sheriff, and, of course, the town mascot, Hank, a pink flamingo who thinks he's a bald eagle... How Lumby has come to host a hot air balloon festival is a long story, but the town's residents are jumping...

Customer Reviews

'Lumby's Bounty" a perfect trifecta. Are there more to come?

Like all the previous stories, I was drawn into this community and couldn't wait for what would happen next. Pete

Just gets better and better!

It has been a pleasure to read the three books in this series. The writing gets better and better and the story lines get better and better. I particularly enjoy reading as I am a writer/editor myself and one becomes conscious of readability, etc. Truly enjoyable in every way!

Come to Lumby!

I have fallen in love with all the folks in Lumby. You will too! Once you read the first Lumby book, you will not stop until you have read all three. I am anxious for more!

Lumby's Bounty

Lumby's Bounty is the 3rd installment from Gail Fraser in the Lumby series. Book #3 does not disappoint. This time the town of Lumby is thrown into a whirlwind when they unexpectedly have to host a Hot Air Balloon Festival. The towns residents rise to the occassion with lots of laughs, new relationships, changing relationships and new directions in life. If you like cozy, small town reads, the town of Lumby is the perfect place to visit.

Another Uplifting Visit to the Amazing Town of Lumby

I was once again swept away to Lumby, a delightfully quirky town whose residents have deep morals, iron clad values and unstiring faith. The town is reluctantly drawn into hosting a hot air ballon festival; the preparations are hilarious and the outcome, endearing and unforgetable. Meanwhile the monks of Saint Cross are overrun by "seekers" who seem more intersted in free handouts than in spiritual growth. A delightful read that will have you smiling until the very last page, and then some. Highly recommended to anyone who enjoys Jan Karon, Nicholas Sparks, Macomber and Medlicott and all the other writers who don't have to use blantant sex and violence to weave a great story.
