A Local Habitation is the second book in the October Daye series by Seanan McGuire.

Once again Toby has found her self at the service of her Leige Sylvester Torquill. This time she is asked to go to another county, the County of Tamed Lightening, that is not a part of her Leige's territory. This territory is under the rule of Sylvester's neice Jan. Upon arriving, Toby finds that things are not what they seem. For one, people keep being murdered and for two messages to Sylvester do not seem to be getting through. Toby races against time trying to solve this mystery and get herself out alive. With the aid of Page Quenton she must determine the source of the message blocking and find the murderer.

I enjoyed this addition to the series and am looking forward to more books coming out. This book was no less interesting than the first one, and the plot twists kept coming out. The list of characters did not entirely change, most of those from the first book were there as well as some new additions. I did enjoy and hope to see more interactions with Toby and Tybalt.
