I think that this book is okay at best. I originally bought it about 10 years ago when I was in a dragon phase. I found the characters to be annoying, mainly Kale and Paladin. Kale is insecure and takes every opportunity to remind the reader of that fact. I don't mind such issues in characters, but it does not need to be addressed every page. Additionally the Christian subthemes are about as well hidden as a toddler hiding behind a pole. Again the issue isn't the fact that the subthemes exist, but rather that they are blasted in your face. I do not recommend this book. But that is just my opinion.
