I really enjoyed this installment in the series. :-) There's something undeniably sweet about the idea of Harry taking the time (and money!) to sit down and take care of Bob properly in really the only way he can take care of him.
And Bob's story about the wizard was funny and so very Bob. *g* I confess, I half believe that Bob had no weapon but words against the dragon! He seems like the type to appreciate very subtle magic. The type that requires immense skill, but not much power. Which makes me wonder if he's frustrated sometimes with the fact that Harry's greatest strength is in evocation--powerful but messy magic.
Or maybe it's Harry that worries about that...that he isn't making Bob proud, in a way. *ponders*
