  This is by far my favorite book of the series Why? Let me indulge you in the greatness of this bookDRAGONSThere are little dragons called minor dragons which remind me of the Terrible Terrors from How to Train Your Dragon But better I mean different colors mean different abilities Purple singing Green healing Orange laughter And so on They're adorable I want someGOOD WIZARDSAll I can say is I think Mr Gandalf in this gif is under the spell of TobyMac Just saying Anyway when I say wizards I mean specifically Wizard Fenworth who is my dream grandpa He is adorable And he turns into a tree if he stays still for too long so how is that not cool??? Now I know when wizards get brought up the automatic thought is Harry Potter I assure you these wizards are nothing like the Harry Potter wizards I would classify these awesomely good wizards under the Lord of the Rings wizard category DEVIOUSLY DARK AND EVIL WIZARDSSeriously these evil wizards are bad to the core Mrs Paul can write some really awesome villainsAnd most importantlyA REALLY HANDSOME KNIGHT WITH BLUE EYES AND BLACK HAIR AND ABS AND MUSCLES AND SECRETS WITH A SLIGHTLY STUCK UP YET LOVEABLE ATTITUDEYes It is love I ship me and Bardon cough I mean Kale and Bardon Bardon's really secretive nature is really attractive I absolutely adore his character development Andyes he's perfectionCase closedPlease do yourself a favor and pick up this book It is the second book in the DragonKeeper series so if you have not read the first book DragonSpell I highly recommend reading that one as well You will not be disappointed These characters will live with you forever and ever in your heart Especially Bardon

  I’ll start off by saying I enjoyed Dragonuest uite a bit than DragonSpell the first book I could see things much clearly in this book and felt a much stronger bond to the old characters as well as the newI think my favorite thing about this book were the new characters They really added a lot Toopka a little doneel girl was absolutely adorable and made me laugh many times The meech dragon Regidor was fascinating and a very imaginative creature I thoroughly enjoyed But my most favorite addition was Bardon He’s wonderfully flawed I just love characters with secrets and inner struggle and I can’t wait to read on with his story I also loved following many of the old characters particularly Dar and the minor dragons loved the new additions to them as well I’m looking forward to seeing of Kale’s growth I wasn’t so sure about her in book one but she is growing on me Dragonuest has a lot of action and interesting plot twists and is a great seuel to the first book A perfect read for any lover of Christian fantasy such as myself I am now eagerly reading on in DragonKnight book 3 which has already captured my interest

  I liked this book even better than the first in the series The story here picks up just a couple weeks after the events of the previous book DragonSpell Dragon Keepers Chronicles Book 1 Since we already know the characters the story here is able to take right off without needing to take time to introduce the reader to everything and everyoneMost of the same characters from DragonSpell are back with the addition of several new ones as well I especially enjoyed the addition of Toopka as she adds a bit of fun and mischief and also Bardon who adds a nice layer of mysteryintrigue These two really added alot of life to the pages I'm hoping they will be present through out the rest of the seriesAs I said in my review for DragonSpell this series is not kids only People of many ages can enjoy it there is something for just about everyone here The allegory is still present as it was in the previous book I really like this angle as it gives you a different way to look at certain things And of course there's lots of adventure that seems to be a staple for this series And don't forget the dragonsI'll soon be starting the next book in the series DragonKnight Dragon Keepers Chronicles Book 3 and I suspect that adventure awaits

  This series is still holding up well I'm pretty sure either this or DragonKnight was my favorite in the series — I can definitely tell why this one would've been We have the beginnings of Kale and Bardon and I think I like them even as a couple than I did before? As a note on Bardon — I definitely appreciate his character much than I used to His backstory has all the ingredients necessary for a Broody Hero but instead Bardon's just a person He doesn't brood; he worries He's a perfectionist driven by desire for the approval of his mentors something I can very much relate to and who when confronted with new information about himself and his abilities is understandably shocked and concerned but isn't stupid about it And of course I love Kale and relate to her a great deal as well and honestly? She's the sort of female character we need of So yeah I remember why I loved these books so much and I still love them now Do I recognize a few issues with writing style and technical uality now as well? Yes but I can overlook those in favor of an exciting plot engaging characters and excellent themes

  What a brilliant addition to the seriesI thoroughly enjoyed reading this second book It had everything I loved about the first one characters friendships adventures dragons but also so much I absolutely loved stepping back into the world of Amara and learning about the species history and culture It's a place I'd love to visit and that's how you it's been brilliantly craftedI loved getting to know the new leech dragon Regidor He was so much fun and I liked his camaraderie with Kale One of my favourite parts of this book was Bardon I loved how Kale and Bardon's relationship progressed from mistrust to friendship The minor dragons were a delight to read about and I can't wait for the rest to hatch This novel was kind of like the climax to the first novel so I loved itReally looking forward to reading the rest in the series

  I haven't read too much fantasy But I have family members who really enjoy that genre So I bought this book on CD read by Ellen Grafton She does a good job Though her voice sounds like a young girl she is talented and can change it to fit the character she is speaking for The story of course is good vs evil The author invented some uite disgusting creatures to work for the evil wizard The young heroine must find her way and must help the uest I started to look forward to finding out what would happen next time I got in the car to listen I also liked the positive references to what would be considered noble character and doing the right thing So much of our world today tells us to take the easy road just to do what we want to do or what makes us feel good This book speaks of conseuences The characters are interesting and likeable The descriptions of the dragons makes me wish I could see one Kale's friends are uite a collection of characters I particularly liked the old wizard who sometimes turns into a tree I want to be like him when I grow old Ha Ha There is a lot going on in this story I would recommend this tale of the land of Amara to anyone

  A dragonkeeper of Paladin Kale is summoned from the Hall to The Bogs by the Wizard Fenworth to serve as his apprentice and tend his newly hatched meech dragon Regidor But Kale isn’t going alone The Hall is sending a student to monitor her performance and report back to the scholars Worst of all it’s Bardon–an older boy Kale finds irritating but who at least can hold his own in a sword fight Meanwhile the Wizard Risto has seized another meech dragon bringing him dangerously close to gaining the power he seeks So with only a motley band of companions Kale sets out on a desperate uest to rescue the second meech to free those dragons already enslaved and to thwart Risto’s devious plans It’s up to Kale to lead the search and to embrace the role that’s rightfully hers But will her efforts be enough to save the land of Amara from the dark future that awaits at Risto’s hands?
