This was a perfect ending for a perfect series. I loved it like I loved the previous two and I could not put it down

I don't think I can name a favorite, when it comes to these books and I don't think I want to.

I love the adventure I have gotten to share with Creel and I think the ending of the book was weary fitting. It was a nice way of ending the books and while I would love for there to be another one, I don't think it's missing.

I would definitely recommend this book and the others. They work well for kids and adult and should not be missed

I flip flopped a lot on what to give this book a 3 or 4 since there are no half stars but I decided on 3 because I enjoyed the books leading up to it and I liked how Creel's story ended but I was disappointed about a few aspects.

This one didn't have as much embroidery or sewing going on like it did in the last two but it did present itself in Creel's wedding dress and of course to help save the day-more or less, not exactly.

It didn't feel as dire to me even though it probably could've. Sure things are pretty bad and I did want to know what happened but in a more curious way than I just have to know! I enjoyed reading it though and liked how all the characters played into the story.

Creel seems pretty much the same, spunky and caring. Luka is still quite a fine honest guy. We see a lot of dragons as well as different people (cultures). Dragons are showcased even more in this one I think. They are given more history as well as more dimensions like a sort of code of honor for them and even a different culture to the one presented in the prior two books.

In the end you could just leave it at the second book but I wouldn’t sway anyone from reading Dragon Spear.

Again I find myself neglecting the other three books I'm reading to sneak this in as soon as I got it from the library. I'm a little sad there's not more to this series but it definitely didn't disappoint. Loved this whole series.

Finishing out the trilogy. This one seemed a little slow in the first half, but picked up later.
