2nd book in the Dragon's Nest Series
My son and I LOVE the Dragon's Nest series. This second book is not as action-packed as #1 in the series. The plot twists were more difficult to process, from my son's point of view. He did not enjoy this installment as much as the first book in the series, but he still loved reading the series and can't wait to find out the rest of Lief's adventures as he seeks to destroy all 4 Sisters.
Five Stars
As expected
Super series for this age group
We start with the eight volumes of Deltora Quest. Then the Deltora Shadowlands series. Then the four volumes of the Dragons of Deltora.
This book is Volume 2 of the Dragons of Deltora series. In the Quest series, each volume concerns a search for one of the gems that fits in the magic belt of Deltora. In this series, our heroes must find and destroy the Four Sisters, one per volume.
Now, all of this sounds like the same book, over and over again. But, Rodda keeps each book fresh. She keeps an eye on the arc of each series, but gives each individual book its own appeal. That is quite a feat.
Rodda's Rowan of Rin is for younger readers and is a great introduction to quest fantasy. These books are the next step. Deeper characters, more complex plot, more demanding writing style. But again, a wonderful introduction to quest fantasy and very accessible and very satisfying.
One of the best of Deltora
This bookÂof theÂDeltora seriesÂis very exciting because it is a story about self- finding and is very complicated. The main character is the king of Deltora. His name is Leif and he goes through a lot of difficulties. The book Dragons of Deltora Shadowgate is one book of the series of Deltora and you need to know the whole series to understand the book. I would recommend this book to readers aged 9-12. I think this because it is very confusing and jumps around alot.
Exciting second adventure in the Dragons of Deltora series.
Lief, Jasmine, and Barda have destroyed the first of the Four Sisters, the Sister of the East, at Dragon's Nest, but their perilous journey continues. Three of the Sisters still remain, and they must next find and destroy the Sister of the North. Their dangerous journey takes them north toward the border with the Shadowlands, as they search for the Dragon of the Emerald to help them in their quest. Their destination is Shadowgate, where the Sister of the North lies hidden. The Shadow Lord knows of their mission and is determined to stop them. The three companions must fight off many dangers, both known and unknown, if they are to succeed.
This book was the second exciting adventure in the third Deltora series, Dragons of Deltora.
