Wow. Great characters to keep you intrigued. Short but lots of action. If possible, each book gets better than the last.

Meetings, meetings!

In this volume, we meet the Culpeppers and discover that it may really be Diphestive who is the good-hearted hero of this series. It seems any time someone needs Talon’s help, it is Diphestive who reminds everybody that’s what they are together to do. Perhaps a little reluctantly, Grey Cloak helps Diphestive to help Herculleon, a good man, with a big problem. In the process, we met an elf woman in a jail cell who turns out to be the famous Zanna Paydark, Grey Cloak’s mother. When the big fiasco is over, we meet Scourge again, as if the brothers don’t have enough troubles. Meanwhile Gossamer is busy trying to keep Black Frost from finding out what he’s really doing.

There are plenty of adventures for everyone and you will find it hard to put the book down.

This series continues to be a remarkably good read, thanks to excellent writing from author Craig Halloran.

The Story Progresses

The story of Grey Cloak and Dyphestive continues in this the thirteenth book in the twenty book series. Both have opportunities in this book to increase their power and abilities. A surprise character makes an appearance and the blood brothers' plans change. Talon continues to search for the Dragon Helm. What will happen in the next book? I recommend this book.

Deceit!

Another charming yet short addition to the saga that is the Dragon Wars book series! So many great characters combined with intense environmental descriptions make the book hard to put down until you've finished it. I can't wait to rejoin our heroes, especially Streak!!!
