The silliness continues. While not quite at the same caliber as the first two books, this installment is still plenty fun. Eve and co adventure their way to the famous (infamous?) Dragonwrought guild/castle on the edge of dragon territory, with much of the book's focus on them team clearing dunegons (and not always conventionally) to win first the Dragonwrought's stamp of approval before concentraing on gathering contribution points to exchange for new equipment in the Dragonwrought's vault.
While we see some interesting development's in Eve's class, the most fun (imo) came from seeing Wes and Preston both hit level 50 and all the shenganians that those milestones entailed.

Yes, it's ridiculous.
And also thoroughly entertaining (despite getting "I Want It That Way" stuck in my head after listening a particular scene). ...more
A fun read/sproof of Star Trek that pokes fun at how all the red shirts always die. What I loved in this is that it doesn't take 3.5 stars rounded up.
A fun read/sproof of Star Trek that pokes fun at how all the red shirts always die. What I loved in this is that it doesn't take itself too seriously. This story is ridiculous and it revels in it, however, it did take me a good while to distinguish all the side characters from one another. Nonetheless, if you're a Trekkie, this one is good for a laugh. ...more
