I don't think I'm ready to let the characters in this story go. I think I need more Vern, Squibb and all the cast of this story.
I had a lot of fun, I rooted for them, laughed at their antics and enjoyed this excellent story.
Mr Colfer is a master storyteller and this book is continuous rollercoaster of ideas, action and twists.
I fell in in love with the story at the first chapter and couldn't stop laughing at idea of a dragon who watches Netflix and like Flashdance t-shirts.
Vern is a great characters and I liked how he evolved in the book, going from hating mens to being friends with some of them. Squibb is also having a great character development and he could have been written by Mark Twain if he was living today.
Hooke is the arch villain that makes you laugh and reminded me of Wile Coyote with his complex plans and the unpredictable results.
The story is not always fast paced, the first part is a long introduction to the characters and to build the relationships and the basis for the action. The second one is a fast paced and a firework of actions. Even if the first one is slower is nonetheless very enjoyable.
The world building is amazing and I appreciated the dragon lore and how the bayou setting was perfect for the plot.
It was an excellent read, engrossing and entertaining: highly recommended.
Many thanks to the publisher for this ARC, all opinions are mine.
