I journeyed nameless. Explored a kingdom of Dragons. Faced a mad King. Befriended Wolves and hunted with Lions...

Thank you for another beautifully spun story.

AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh I loved (and still love) reading this book! From chapter one with Shard and Hikaru to the end with Shard and Kjorn. I loved following Caj's quest to save his wingbrother Sverin and Shard's trials with the Sunland dragons (I still can't get over how BRATTY they are). I wanted to cry when Hikaru asked if Shard wanted to know the stars back to the Silver Isles and Shard is just like: HOME, and then he says no . . . and then Hikaru STAYS IN THE SUNLAND *bawling* as Shard goes to the Winderost. AND THE LOST VANIR!! I loved that part (except for the gryfess who DIED)!
I love the obvious message of truth, love, and sacrifice. I love the characters and their problems and the overall goal of worldwide peace. I really dislike books that have this nice plot but the author LEAVES OUT ALL THE OTHER LITTLE PROBLEMS THAT NEED TO BE SOLVED *cough, cough, HARRY POTTER*, but Jess E. Owen makes sure they're all covered.
Also, NOBODY IS THE REAL "BAD GUY", which I LOVE because it shows that there IS good in everyone, we just need to LISTEN and try to understand. Everyone has problems but WE CAN HELP THEM.
I just love this book. So awesome. AND I CAN NOT WAIT FOR THE FOURTH BOOK.
I also love Rhydda. I really, really do. I LOVE HER even though she ALMOST KILLED STIGR and DID kill the gryfess . . . she's still epic. WYRM POWER PEOPLE!!
And those Sunland dragons . . . ooooh, when I get my talons on them . . .
Fair winds, and read the Summer King Chronicles
