terriaminute 's review for:

A Destiny of Dragons by TJ Klune
5.0

I loved the first book, wherein we learn that nothing Sam's involved in is ever straightforward. It's a masterclass in flipping fantasy tropes on their heads and tickling them until they beg for mercy. It's genuinely funny in that annoying way young people can be sometimes, and if you've read it and wonder, as I did, if the rest of the series can possibly be better, I tell you YES.

#2 is not quite as verbose-silly (dialogue) but the core of these goofballs persists under the onus of Sam's destiny as if condensed, to be spent in every bit of spare time. Just, a lot happens, sometimes really fast and from surprising directions, and if book 1 was five stars, this one by all rights ought to be fifty stars. In fact, though it does not cliffhang, it does end in motion, and I am well pleased with myself to have already purchased books 3 and 4. Good job, past-me!
