Dragon Spear by Jessica Day George
5.0
I am somewhat sad to be finished with this book, because it certainly was an excellent series. In terms of Luka and Creel, I am very glad that she did decide to make this final book because I did want to hear how all of that would work out, with Creel's crazy aunt and all. I am also so happy that Velika is with children in this volume, as I did so hope that there would be another heir to the dragon throne (which, it turns out, is the plot of this book). It doesn't take place in the same lands as the other books do, but instead our lovely main characters find themselves in a whole other world, which I think might be somewhere around Cuba, with a whole new set of dragons and a whole different type of hoard.
I would just like to say that I am fascinated with trying to figure out what every country in this book really is. For instance, there is a language in this book that refers to an animal called an "unayama," which I am sure is really "una llama" or "one llama" and therefore they are somewhere near Spain or Mexico. I'm sure that she's taken languages and customs from real places and I just want so desperately to figure out what places they are! I may have to reread it just for that.
