And the improvements continue apace! I'm actually looking forward to reading the next one, as the end of The Vile Village means we may finally be shot of the whole "useless guardian" bit, which has become irritatingly repetitive at this point. It's good to see the return of the Quagmire triplets, and the appearance of Jacques, like the secret tunnel of the previous volume, is indicative of a wider mystery which at this point is the most entertaining thing about the series. Bar Sunny's cryptic utterances, of course!
