The Fire Ascending by Chris d'Lacey

3.0

I loved this series a lot but this ending was a bit of a let down. I have been told by numerous people to read the whole series in order (I don't normally) so I did but I still didn't really understand all if it. It seems to have been written the way it was to make Fireworld make sense but all the chopping and changing time lines just confuses it. I loved the earlier books and,by itself, Fireworld but this book just fell a little flat. I was more confused by this than the Lord of the rings which is saying something. I also thought that by including physics and creation theories at such it detracted from the dragons. The pennykettle dragons are among the best 'Earth' dragons I have read about I love how they each have their own personality, their spark, but they don't feature as much in this book which is a shame. I would have liked to have rated it higher but unfortunately I can't.
