I'm glad you've enjoyed the first few as much as I did, but I felt I should warn you about the later books. By the fifth book (Dragonlight), whatever Christian allegory Paul was employing has gotten very muddled. I'm not sure anymore who Palladin is meant to represent, but it seems unlikely it is the Christian image of Christ. I also purchased and read her two later books (The Vanishing Sculptor & Dragons of the Valley) and I had to honestly wonder if it was the same author. To me, her writing style has become ponderous and feels contrived and choppy. I'm only mentioning this because I think those first few books are some of the better dragon tales out there (especially for Christian parents) and I'd hate for someone to start with one of her later books, and make a judgment based on these. Obviously, this is just one person's opinion but I thought I'd put in my two cents worth!<br /><br />Thanks,<br />AngieAngie Bnoreply@blogger.com
