I ended up feeling that this was a little sillier than the earlier books in the series, but it's still basically okay. Best part of it is that the dragons are utterly sick of the wizards and have just started eating them, which seems infinitely preferable to banishing them with dish soap and lemon juice. I mean, I'm sure it's fun to see them melt but they reform in a matter of days and go straight back to their destructive ways so really, a permanent solution seems sensible. If you'd only grasped that, Cimorene, this book wouldn't have ended the way that it does, but then I expect you're restricted by the target audience. Your child readers probably aren't up for murder, but like Kazul I'm getting fed up with wizards in this series... it rather feels like the same problem every book. I did like the addition of the talking cats, but Killer the rabbit/flying donkey became very tedious very quickly.
