Since I enjoyed the first two books in this trilogy I had high expectations when I started reading Dragon Spear by Jessica Day George. Though I had no idea where this book was going to go, the title didn’t give anything away and I was drawn immediately back into the world with Creel and Prince Luka and their new adventure. I have been rooting for these two characters the whole time and was so grateful that this book doesn’t have a typical dramatic breakup before the happily ever after. While the previous two books focus a lot on the development of Creel and her position in the world — Can she be more than a farm girl? Is she worthy of a prince? — this book focuses on how much she has changed and puts her self confidence to the test. This time instead of there being conflicts with human and dragons, it all revolves around the conflict with the various groups of dragons. There are some significant sacrifices in this book and while I am living in the modern world and don’t have the same dilemmas or have the same attachments I can relate to what she is going through.This is a great story and wonderful conclusion to the series and really made me focus on what I would be willing to sacrifice if I was ever in dire situation. This is an amazing series that I cannot recommend highly enough.
