Summary: Keep on Reading. . .
Comment: I'm having a hard time deciding whether I liked the first book in this series or this one, but so far all the books are wonderful.
Part of the conflict in this book revolves around the villain, Melina Shield, who has just been wedded to the monarch of New Kelvin. The other major conflict that progresses the plot is the madness of Citrine, which presumalby will be cured if she can confront her mother, who caused her to be traumatized to the point of insanity. All of the main characters from the first two books are there to contribute (on varying levels; Sir Jared and Elise hardly do anything).
There have been complaints that there is little character deleopment in this book. This isn't entirely true. Firekeeper has some very complicated mental issues to deal with, Edlin matures a lot, and Citrine learns how she can fit herself into the world.
Overall, this is a true page-turner, with all the riveting plot twists and wonderful prose you can expect from Jane Lindskold. If another one of these books comes out, I'd definetly read it!

Summary: Another Great Adventure
Comment: Dragons continues the story of Melina vs. Firekeeper, but as with all the Firekeeper novels, it's more than just "good vs. evil." It's also about levels and layers of political intrigue - and this time, not just between the assorted human kingdoms. The wise wolves that raised Firekeeper have kingdoms of their own, and now their council is getting into the act. Once again, the plot twists and turns unexpectedly, with the fates of individual characters and whole kingdoms in doubt up to the last breathlessly turned page.

Summary: No Despair at all
Comment: The wolf series gets better and better. This, the third in the series carrys Firekeeper and crew into new territory. Firekeeper grows with each book. Melinda, thank you, finally gets her comeupance. The combination of great characters, good writing and wonderfully structured world, with just enough magic is the kind of book that I've grown to expect from Lindskold. Her "Changer" series was great, but these first three in the "Firekeeper" books are harbingers of an exceptional series. I hope that she continues until I grow old!
