SUM: The Book of Earth: In the year 913 Erde runs away from her home castle after an unfortunate visit from the hell-priest, Fra Guill (Brother Guillemo). She stumbles upon Earth, one of the four elemental dragons that helped create the world. Erde and Earth travel with Sir Hal to discover Earth's lost purpose, and the reason that he has awoken.
The Book of Water: Erde and Earth travel to the year 2013, where N'Doch of Africa finds his dragon, Water. Together the dragon guides follow clues to discover their lost purpose, and their siblings, Fire and Air.
REV: I really enjoyed The Book of Earth. I got so closed to Erde, I just wanted more and more of her. When I started The Book of Water the first time I was disappointed that I wasn't getting more Erde--so much so that I put down the series after finishing the first volume. I finally picked them up again though, and wow has my appreciation heightened. First of all, Kellogg's mastery of the multiple POVs in The Book of Water are excellent. Using past tense for Erde, and present tense for N'Doch--pure genius. Love the way Water is always tugging at N'Doch's heartstrings, the way he's the reluctant guide, like it isn't the coolest thing ever to have your own dragon. Very very cool. Would definitely recommend the series to anyone.
