 "Ember"
 The shout cut through the quiet, and my nerves leaped in warning. I jerked back to see the rogue dragon striding across the roof towards us, a murderous gleam in his eyes.

    Wives heard of this series but know nothing about it. With sneaking out windows and a court case it seems very exciting.

    I didn't know that Julie Kagawa had another book. Is it part of a new series or a stand alone?

      I've read literally every book she has written and have one on preorder for October. LOL. I like her a lot and HIGHLY recommend her, especially The Iron Fey series.

    Great line! You've really brought to life a piece of the book, a rogue dragon with a murderous gleam!!

    Love the cover! Don't think I'd want to meet up with any "rogue dragons," though -- regular dragons are bad enough! Hope you're enjoying this one.

    Honestly, I tried so hard to finish this book, but I could not will myself to do it. Maybe I'll pick it back up soon :)

REVIEW: It was weird starting off with a He-Man lookalike, Thunder the Barabarian), until I realized a character from the film was watching the cartoon in the airplane. Still, it was kind of cool to reminice about two cartoons from my childhood. So many great actors bring the film to life! What a fun story it was too! Although
