Title: Someone please save us from a sequel
Review: Dragons are real. And they're among us today. Ooh. Scary.Not.School Library Journal characterizes this book as "a long series of sword-and-sorcery adventures heavy on action and light on plot-much like a video game, comic strip, or feature-length cartoon written in short sentences and simple language but without the pictures."Kirkus Reviews states that the book relies on "lots of spectacular fiery explosions to distract readers from the clunky prose, wooden characters, and nonsensical, cliche-ridden plot."Yikes.I won't disagree with other reviewers who assert that the premise could have germinated into a book that was readable. Unfortunately, the author doesn't seem to be the one to carry this out.The author's partisans would have you believe that this is a gem, waiting to be discovered by all fantasy lovers. I would contend that it's pyrite, waiting for less discriminating readers to inadvertantly pick it up, to their eventual dismay.
