Perhaps one day . . .<br /><br />I haven't read Dragonhaven by Robin McKinley. It's probably one of the few of hers I haven't. I think I looked up reviews, too, and from those as well as your description, I don't know if I will read it. But I love seeing what fascinates you and why you liked it. :)<br /><br />I think my favorite dragons are those in Dragon Slippers by Jessica Day George. Not as detailed as Robin McKinley's, but a fun read.Janet Johnsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12688012956157161889noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1150746199598958569.post-3315256592680349442014-07-11T21:25:03.974-06:002014-07-11T21:25:03.974-06:00Dragonflight made me fall in love with them!!

Unicorns are second, but those dragons always get my vote as number one mythical creature. cleemckenziehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15456109243453726483noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1150746199598958569.post-11344933046324200562014-07-10T20:52:21.063-06:002014-07-10T20:52:21.063-06:00I loved seeing your old Macintosh picture! :)
I do...I loved seeing your old Macintosh picture! :)<br />I don't read a lot of dragon books, but my favorites are both by Gail Carson Levine:<br />The Two Princesses of Bamarre and The Tale of Two Castles. <br />Thanks for sharing your reading memories!Jennihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13139361928785566916noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1150746199598958569.post-19972346393826276192014-07-10T19:43:36.523-06:002014-07-10T19:43:36.523-06:00Margo, your memories of what you read never cease ...Margo, your memories of what you read never cease to amaze me. As you mentioned them, I could remember reading the books at some time or other. <br /><br />Favorite Dragon. While I enjoy them, including Yasmine Galenorn's take on them, my favorite McCaffrey book is "Restoree", which was one of her earlier books and not as well crafted as her Pern books.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14115085533635353291noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1150746199598958569.post-53325841975914475672014-07-10T15:00:36.104-06:002014-07-10T15:00:36.104-06:00I have heard for Wrede's Dragon books - need t...I have heard for Wrede's Dragon books - need to start reading!! I did try Game of Thrones, but it was too bloodthirsty for me. I'd love to know more about the draogns, though.

My favorite mythical creature...Dragons are awesome! My favorite mythical creature is the mermaid, but dragons are second. My favorite dragon is Kazul from the Enchanted Forest Chronicles by Patricia C. Wrede. One of my favorite books is The Eyes of the Dragon by Stephen King. It's not about dragons at all, but one is veeerrry very important. I also liked Saphira in the Eragon series by Christopher Paolini. And of course, Tolkien's Smaug! The dragons and dragon history in George R.R. Martin's Song of Ice and Fire series are really cool too. And I really like the How to Train Your Dragon movies. Love dragons!!<br /><br />Happy reading and writing! from <a href="http://lauramarcella.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Laura Marcella @ Wavy Lines</a>Laura S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13934230198562773803noreply@blogger.com
