Rating:  Summary: Enchanting Fantasy Book!!!!!!! Review: This is a great book.Great, ecspecially to follow Dealing with Dragons. I applaud Patricia on this great and hilarious book.
Rating:  Summary: Adventure and humor all in one! Review: There is probably no better series of younge adult books around! This one book probably is one of the more exiting books you will ever read!!! I jusy can't sto reading it!!!
Rating:  Summary: I loved how Ms. Wrede involved old fairy tales in her book. Review: The part where the whole Rumplestilskin thing went wrong, and how Jacks were stealing the giant's things once a month made me chuckle. This book has a definite (and good) sense of humor
Rating:  Summary: One of my favorite books of all times Review: Searching for Dragons is part of Patricia C. Wredes amazing Enchanted Forest Chronicles. Searching for Dragons is my favorite in the series, and I've read it multiple times (and I don't even on the book). The book is full of magic, adventure, humor and most of all, great characters, that are both sensible and fun. Mendenbar and Cimorene will always have fond places in my heart.
Rating:  Summary: A perfect follow-up to DEALING WITH DRAGONS! Review: If you've read DEALING WITH DRAGONS and loved it, you'll certainly agree that the match made in this book is perfect. And of course, all of your favorite dragons are back, and all those trouble-making wizards also. But unfortantly for the wizards, Cimorene has someone to help this time who has just as much "power" as her.
Rating:  Summary: Wonderful book Review: This book is one that I read again and again without ever becoming bored of it. I love the characters, and it never fails to put me in a good mood. I wish that the series went on forever.
Rating:  Summary: good Review: I've read all the books of the series. they are my favorite books in the world. How could anyone hate them.My favorite character is Morwen and her cats. I wish Patricia would write another sequel to talking with dragons. i have good ideas for the sequel.
Rating:  Summary: Facinating tale Review: It all begins when Mendanbar, the King, finds a burnt area of his magical forest. His journey takes him to the Mountains of Morning, a wasteland, and to danger within his own kingdom. Cimorene, a princess, accompanies him in their search for Kazul, the King of the Dragons
Rating:  Summary: Brilliant, A great read Review: This book is a wonderful mix of excitement and mystery with
a tinge of romnce. Wonderfully un-real, this book contains
magic and mystery in the land of Wizards and talking animals
As Comerone and Medanbar set off to search for Kazul, king of the dragons, they encounter all sorts of strange things
and withut knowin it, they fall in love.
A wonderful book for all ages.
Rating:  Summary: The Entire Series Is Phenomenally Brilliant Review: What? Only five stars?!? I need more to do this series justice! Patricia C. Wrede writes marvelous fantasy. It's like "Mixed-Up Fairy Tales" or something, but funnier, more engaging, and ripe for repeat reading (I just graduated from high school, and I just finished reading the entire series for the third time in a matter of days). These are timeless tales. Even her NAMES are inventive. Cimorene, Mendanbar, Kazul, Morwen, Telemain, Daystar, Shiara...and let us not forget Zemenar and Antorell. The chapter headings induce chuckles immediately, simply by their existence. She writes in a style that incorporates intelligent fantasy with enjoyable humor. The characters are some you would like to know personally. And nowhere else have I seen as unique a discussion of magic in its many forms as in these four books. I did notice a trend of centralization. Dealing was Cimorene's book. Searching was Mendanbar's. Calling was Morwen's. Talking was Daystar's. I wish the series was not concluded, because I'd love to see Telemain's book. And perhaps Kazul's book could be somewhat of a prequel. Oh, and what about a book from Antorell's perspective? That would make for an incredibly funny story. The Enchanted Forest and its surrounding is a world I want to know about. Not many authors can create an entire world that entices the reader so greatly. But Mrs. Wrede has. Unlike the Douglas Adams' Hitchiker's Guide series, which got progressively worse, each book in the Enchanted Forest Chronicles compares to the original, as fresh and brilliant as ever. Needless to say, this series is one of the best ever. I have not really sampled a lot of the adult fantasy by Piers Anthony and Anne McCaffrey and such, but I doubt they can compare with the Enchanted Forest Chronicles. This is not mindboggling fantasy like the Lord of the Rings trilogy: this is fun. Oh, and remember: ..."Argelfraster."
