Narration Toward Books Sanctuary (Dragon Jousters #3)

This isn't really the final book, since she then went back and wrote a fourth one, but since the threat of wild horses couldn't entice me to continue reading once I found a good stopping place, I might as well use this as my conclusion. It was, after all, only meant to be a trilogy. She finally ended most of the tedium of dragon care, what was fascinating in the beginning soon felt like I really did own a dragon. The reader was present for every feeding, at least we were spared the shoveling of dung in this final book. What's more, the constant search for food was an all-pervading theme, okay, we get it, dragons are HUNGRY. I'm only glad she bothered to take care of the search for water in the desert, because that could've really gotten boring. The world was moderately interesting, except it was just a fantasy version of Egypt, and the Egyptian names blurred together after a bit. The characters proved intensely flat. So what if boy got girl? Boy was never in danger of losing girl. In fact, the books were entirely devoid of any romantic entanglements of any sort. How is it that every relationship was so distinctly without any drama? A few people died, but no one intrinsic to the plot, or if they were, I didn't seem to notice. I didn't really care about any of them. Honestly, I'm just glad this is over with, which isn't how I should feel about a trilogy. I should be exciting about jumping into another book, and happy that she wrote a fourth.

Column About Books Sanctuary (Dragon Jousters #3)

The third book in the series is an lovely tale of people coming together, definitely something the world needs more of.

I still love this new world that Lackey's created but I felt that this book fell short of the previous two. The story was slow to start and it didn't really get going until after the first 100 pages. Also, I think my reaction had a lot to do with the fact it's been about a year since I've read the second book and the events and characters of that were a little fuzzy. However, the ending was satisfactory and there are enough intriguing hints of what's to come in this universe that I'll keep

With this book, the series has gotten rather more epic in scale, with characters hoping to set up a new united kingdom. Mostly I liked this book. It was a quick read and entertaining. The thing that annoyed me the most is that the gods want our characters to succeed and do various things that conveniently help them.

Finally, we get some actual high stakes and threats to our main characters! And we get out of the training grounds for a bit! There were some cool things that happened off page that I wish we could have seen (view spoiler)[ Journey through a desert to find a mysterious legendary hidden city! Sounds cool but all we get is Hey, Im off to find the city and then Hey, I found it. When you get this message come meet me. (hide spoiler)] Still not a huge fan of the love interest but its not a huge part

Following the adventures of Kiron the Dragon Jouster as he and his friends set up their refuge in the desert and their saving of those the Mages of Alta would use in their quest for eternal youth and power

It was an okay story line which lacked substance but a great Disney like story.

I like the books Mercedes lackey writes, she is good at creating a believable world and people to populate it. This series starts off very strong though I do feel that it falls off a bit as it progresses. It is truly readable and enjoyable.
