When I looked up Dragon Slippers to reread my childhood fave, I had no idea that there was a second and third book! The first ends on a bit of a cliffhanger, so probably I just was not very good at pursuing books in the library when I was a child. But I was happy to find I really liked this one too, even if it didn't have the familiarity of my youth.

I liked the flipping of the dynamics from the first book, and I liked the deeper look into alchemy as a practice. It might be 4.5 out of 5 though, because I was not quite as into the heroine as a character in the second book as I was in the first. I found her personality a little too reminiscent of my tumblr 2012 self, which I'd Prefer Not To Look At.

I read the first book in this series quite a while ago. I really did enjoy it, but didn't feel the need to pick up the next book immediately. So much time had passed (and so many books in-between)that I was a little nervous coming into the sequel. I didn't remember much, but it came back to me pretty quickly.

Really teetering between three and four stars here. I did enjoy it. It was well written. It did just feel a little "young" (even though the main characters are in their older teens). The cartoon cover is a good representation of the style of the story. Some of the events were just a little too ... cute or cartoonish. Even when there was fighting and life and death situations,it just didn't grab me like other, more "realistic" fantasy (I realize that's an oxymoron!) *Ü*

Totally inhaled this book. I love the characters and the story is just exciting to read.

You can kind see where this is all going and then *bam!* what a plot twist! Loved it.

This sequel to Dragon Slippers did not disappoint me. It jumped right back into Creel's life and adventures. Great story!

I did like the first one more, but it was an enjoyable read and it was fun to revisit these characters. I don't know if it was because this plot felt similar to the first book, but the pacing dragged for me a bit. I did love the sweet ending.
