Searching for Dragons

Cimorene is back with new friends. Patricia Wrede has written an amazing sequel, using a new characters point of view. We see this story through the eyes of Mendanbar (King of the Enchanted Forest) as he teams up with Cimorene to find the kidnapped King Kazul.

I absolutely love the different views of Cimorene and Morwen we gain in this book. We know how Cimorene thinks, and in the first book she is generally right about most things. After all she is dealing with a lot of silly people. However, now she is dealing with someone who accepts her as she is and is on par with her, about most things. Mendanbar has a different way of viewing the world, and is less jaded in my opinion. So, how he deals with people and animals is more polite, more straight forward, and less pushy until he has to step in as KING. I love stories where the King thinks of it more as a job than a right and treats it as such.

So now I've dealt with dragons. I've searched for dragons. On to Calling on Dragons.
