Verdict: The Whim of the Dragon is a thoroughly delightful story!

Reasons for reading it: It's the third in a trilogy and follows on from The Secret Country and The Hidden Land.

How it came into my hands: Present from [livejournal.com profile] rysmiel *grin*

detailed review )

I would recommend tWotD highly; it really justifies the earlier two books. [livejournal.com profile] pthalogreen, you should really read this; it's about imaginary countries, and the responsibility that children have in an adult world, and knowing whether the people in your head are real, and Shakespeare.

Soundbite

Miscellaneous. Eclectic. Random. Perhaps markedly literate, or at least suffering from the compulsion to read any text that presents itself, including cereal boxes.
