When's the next dragon book? I just read this, wasn't aware it was meant for young adults. Im 66 and completely enjoyed it. Looking for more now. It has a few ideas that I have contemplated myself, like alternative worlds and how dragons became such powerful myths in our world. Fantastic imagination. I love that you cant guess whats going to happen next. I don't enjoy predictable books.
