Rating: Summary: This is a great fantasy book!! Review: This is a great book. The plot is really interesting and NOT boring. I recomend this book to all fantasy readers, plus all the other books in the series.
Rating: Summary: Hilarious; An excellent read for everyone! Review: This book is hilarious! It's a story about Cimorene, a princess who will not allow her parents to push her into a dull marrige against her will. She runs away to become the princess of the dragon Kazul. Between her, another princess, an enchanted stone prince, and a witch named Morwen, she manages to stop a group of evil wizards who plan to take control of the dragon kingdom. In this book (as well as the 3 sequels), Wrede creates a set of engaging, entertaining characters that poke fun at fairy tales. Wrede's dragon series is sure to entertain people of all ages.
Rating: Summary: this book is great!! Review: This is the first book by P. C. Wrede that I ever read, and it is also the one that hooked me on fantasy. Wrede's characters are believeable and full of surprises. Her style of writing is gripping but still adds comic releaf through actions and characters. If you've never read fantasy and think it just sounds dumb give this book a try. You might be just as surprised as I was.
Rating: Summary: Wow! Review: Wow. I have read all the books in this series. I love them all. I liked Shiara in Talking to Dragons a lot. These books are so different from most books. Their not boring there is always something happening. I like how there are the different Fairy Tales mixed together. I really wish there were more books in this series ,but all good things must come to an end.
Rating: Summary: Wonderfully imaginative and entertaining Review: This book was excellent. It was imaginative and original. I would recommend this book to anyone in a flash.
Rating: Summary: Silly, fun and a great book Review: I enjoyed this book primarily for the references to other fairy tales. It was fun reading along and trying to figure out which character/plot device came from what fairy tale. The story itself was also fun. While it's not a deep, or profound, book, it has a good message (believe in yourself and don't try to be like others!) and it's a fun (at times quite silly) book to read. I'd recommend it to anyone who was looking for a light fantasy.
Rating: Summary: Cimarene is not a proper princess! Review: Cimarene is not a proper princess. She has brown hair instead of blond. She is very tall. She doesn't like etiquette or embroidery. She's her own person. A great example for a young woman! She certainly doesn't want to marry some dumb prince. When a frog suggests she get help at a shanty near the forest, she finds herself in the company of dragons. Normally this would frighten a princess, but Cimarene charms one of the dragons into letting her be a dragon's princess - that way she would properly not have to get married! She gets along swimmingly with her dragon Kazul. With the help of a stone prince, a sweet but flighty dragon princess friend and a very clean witch, Cimarene ultimately saves the dragon kingdom from the evil wizards' plot to overcome the kingdom using magic from the Caves of Fire and Night. Patricia Wredes's writing is whimsical, upbeat and downright fun and Cimarene's spirit is undefeatable. I didn't want to stop reading!
Rating: Summary: This book is SPECTACULAR!Wounderful for all ages!!! Review: This book is wounderful! I give it five stars!!! Any and all ages can enjoy this wounderful literary achivement! This book ties a light funny air with a some what heavy drama! The pace is bright and spirited, it's a real page turner! The charechters reemind me of other book charechters, yet they are such an interesting crew, that they really liven up the book. Stone princes is my favorite charechter, he is so proper yet adventures and straining to be let free of his royal bonds! Again, this is an all around spectacular book!
Rating: Summary: The best bood I have ever read!!! Review: This has to be the best book I have ever read. It's about a not so helpless princess who goes to live with a dragon to get away from her family. If I could I would give this forty stars! A MUST read.
Rating: Summary: an awesome fantasy, with lots of humor and excitement!! Review: I am 15 and loved this book. I couldn't put it down!!! I was so amazed. Patricia C. Wrede wrote a wonderfull book. I am still looking for the second and the third books in the series. I know that they will be just and wonderfull and exciting as the first!!!!
