To earn an audience with the headmaster, Ciel's only option is to attend the "Midnight Tea Party," an exclusive gathering hosted by the elusive head of the school. And the only way a lowly first-former like Ciel, earl or no, can land a seat at that table is by being elected the Most Valuable Player in the College's annual storied cricket tournament.

Still loving this series. I have particularly enjoyed the recent arcs aboard the Campania and at Weston College. Only ten more books to go, so I look forward to seeing how it all concludes. 4.5 stars from me overall for the series so far!
