Wederom een leuk deel uit de serie. Ik ben gek op draken. Leuk, spannend en avontuurlijk. Zeker voor kinderen. Maar vond dit niet het beste deel. Hoop dat de rest beter is. Op naar deel 4.

I'm not rating all of these because I read them with my daughter, but I will say that progressing to these from the Dragon Masters and Dragon Girls series (...she knows what she likes) has been an unexpected joy. Those books were fine, but the plots in this series seem more complex and exciting, the dialogue more engaging and funny at times, and these are just a fun read. And who doesn't love a good vortex?

A great story about taking in the world around you and experiencing life, not just living it! I just love these books so much and wish I’d had them when I was a kid!

Loving this series. For those that love dragons, and fantasy themed stories. This book is for you!

I didn't find this one quite as strong as I found the other two, but I still liked it. It's nice to be getting to know each of the characters more, too.

Magical - even if Ellis is the least exciting of the protagonists so far.

Read to, and rated by my 7 year old.

Genoten van hoe alle verhalen bij elkaar komen, hoe personages terugkeren en nieuwe je hart kunnen stelen.
Vorige delen geluisterd en vond ik super leuk, dit deel als boek gelezen om ook eens wat mee te krijgen van de illustraties, maar die vond ik toch niet zoveel toevoegen. Ze zijn wel mooi, maar ik heb nu niet de indruk dat ik het verhaal beter begrijp of voor me zie.

Update na tweede keer:
Eerst had ik deel 1&2 geluisterd, toen deel drie gelezen en 4 weer geluisterd. Deel drie was naar mijn idee wat magertjes, dus toch maar weer geluisterd toen ik wat tijd over had en kon het dus zo veel beter volgen.
De illustraties van het boek waren dus niet mijn leidraad, maar deze voorlees stem bracht het verhaal tot leven.
