Summary: Dragon Steel
Review: Dragon Steel is one of the most excellent books written by Laurence Yep.
I chose this book to read because we had a book assignment and I like stories about Dragons.
The story is about a princess that turns herself in to a dragon so she can get her house back in an under sea world from the evil Civet along with her two sidekicks Thorn and Indigo. Indigo is a girl. It is hard for her to admit that she can make any sort of mistake. Her mother died shortly after they went to the palace and Indigo said it was of heart failure. Then four years later her father died. I don't have anything about Thorn except that he is a boy because it really didn't tell much about him. In the middle of the book Thorn, Indigo, and Princess Shimmer get captured and thrown in the dungeon but the princess is tied up a wall with chains that is made from dragon steel that can't rust or bend because it has a spell on it. Also in the story is Lieutenant who is mean because he said that Indigo should be with her own kind and not with Thorn. Another Character in the story is the Grand Mage who is on the bad side and he tries to take the mirror from Indigo because she might break it and then it would be chaos in the vault.
I thought what magical thing worked the best is Princess Shimmer turning herself in to a dragon. What I thought was weird is Monkey spit on hair from his tail and turned in to many small monkeys. Another thing that I thought was weird is when the flame bird approaches the ocean and the ocean swell swept underneath and put out the fire on the flame bird that had neither flesh nor blood. My favorite part of the story is when Indigo and Thorn became very close to each other like brother and sister.
What surprised me is Indigo became a bit more talkative about her past when she and Thorn were in a storage room near her old home. One more thing that surprised me about Indigo is she became mean when she threatened to take off the paw of the dishwasher with a meat clever who had tried to steal her dinner.
I thought the book turned out to be really good with many surprises.
What I learned from the book is that you can become best friends with your worst enemies and that you have a reason to get mad if someone tries to steal from you.
One of my favorite characters in the book is Monkey because he does many different kinds of magic tricks like turning a needle in to a rod.
To find out if Princess Shimmer is going to save her house and the undersea world you'll have to read the book.

Summary: A book that which will make you stop doing everything!!!
Review: I'm always play game and think that reading is wasting my time, until I met this unique book. Its title is name Dragon Steel. At first I chose this book because it's not really thick and some people said that this fiction book is fantastic! Then I started reading it and realize that... THIS BOOK IS FUN. I liked Dragon Steel because there are many random instant sentences, which I love, and I also will gladly recommend this book to all people. When you read this book, it will be very difficult to put this book downs, this book will make you stop doing everything. I will be waiting for this author's book because his writing is really touching. To me, evil will succeed if good is down.

Summary: ace shooters review
Review: The author of this book is Laurence Yep, The name of this book is Dragon Steel. And it was publicist by Harper trophy. And this is a Fiction Fantasy book that takes place in mythevil times.

The main characters there was a very big and powerful dragon named Thorn. She was a good dragon with a nice family. One day she found out that some bad people captured her family. She vowed that it is time to find her relatives.

Thorn set out to look for her family. She searches all through the mountains and over the oceans. One day while she was searching over the ocean she came upon a little boy and little girl. Thorn asked them if they knew anything about her family. She told them the story about her family and what happened. The children said they knew about a king who captured these dragons and is holding them in his palace way far away in the country as slaves. Will Thorn find her family? Or will she give up?

My opinion of this book is that I did not like the book because I did not know that there was a book before I read Dragon Steel. And that the first book tell the begin of the story. So you should read the first book before you read this one. So read the first book or the book will not make that much cents to you, like what happen to me.

Summary: An excelant continuation to the series
Review: This was great book that basicly continues the adventures of Shimmer and Thorn as they travel further on their quest, this time to the dragon kingdoms and Shimmer's own people. This book had great discriptions and excelant character development, especially as Shimmer tries to reach a middle ground between Thorn and her new friend Indigo. I wish however, that she had been more fair between them instead of favoring Indigo all the time. I myself began to resent Indigo's existance! Despite this, I truly did love this book and would reccamend this book to any young reader who likes fantasy stories and mythology.
