A review by adelaidemetzger_robotprophet
Dragon Avenger by E.E. Knight

4.0

Unlike the first book Dragon Champion, Dragon Avenger is not parallel to the Publisher’s Weekly quote, “…bloody and unsentimental…” and I enjoyed it more so because of that.

It was made clear in the first book that the female dragons are more intelligent than the males both mentally and emotionally. Wistala, the protagonist, thinks through every step before she takes it and also sees sense in making allies first before enemies (unlike her brother who saw almost everyone as an enemy even if they were kind).

Though this books was not an epic journey with a champion’s conclusion, it is because of Wistala’s openness to friendship and positive emotion that I enjoyed this one more than the first, (I’m a girl, what can I say)? A good read with some emotion for those in the mood for dragons.
