Dragon Flight

by Jessica Day George

After finishing Dragon Slippers by Jessica Day George, I was so glad to learn that there was a sequel to the book. I love the characters, especially Creel and Luka. These two are back in action when Prince Luka visits another country which uses dragons as steeds for their army. Once again Jessica Day George gives the characters depth and development through the story. Though we already know what Creel’s talent is, the creativity and resourcefulness of her character, as well as the others, astounds me. The new setting is presented in a vivid way that has me picturing everything down to the minute detail without her even needing to specify it.

This book is just as good as the first one and I fell in love with the characters even more as they struggle together to solve the latest dilemma. Not only are the humans complex individuals but the dragons also have a depth and development that makes each of them unique, endearing, and individualized. I highly recommend this book to anyone who wants to read about dragons and magic with a fresh take on heroines who are strong minded and independent yet retain femininity and culture. She is a heroine that I can admire.
