I highly recommend this book! Very enjoyable, though I would say to read DragonSpell before you read this, at it is first in the series, and you'll be able to understand this book better. I liked this one better than the first, and it kept me reading straight through; I couldn't stop! ( )

This too was really great. If you read Dragonspell, then you've got to read this one! ( )

This is a good book!!! It is not as good as the other Dragon Keeper books but it's still good! ( )

Plot Summary: What happens, When & Where, Central Characters, Major Conflicts
The main character, a 15 year old dragonkeeper named Kale, is sent on several missions involving wizards, dragons, battles, and magic. Kale was an engaging character; she faces many challenges--such as two women who both claim to be her long-lost mother. She also has pledged her life to the service of Paladin, who is a mysterious leader who only occasionally appears with instructions about what Wulder's will is (Wulder apparently being the "God" of the story). .
Style Characterisics: Pacing, clarity, structure, narrative devices, etc.
Paul has created a lively fantasy world peopled with many strange and wonderful kinds of creatures, places, and objects. I found it confusing at first, and had to consult the glossary at the back of the book many times. But once I got into the story and connected with the struggles of the main character it was a delightful read.
