Review Princess Adele’s Dragon by Shirley McLain
Guest Review by Mark
The kingdom of Valdoria is in an upheaval. For six years now, their lands have been threatened by a fearsome dragon that soars high above their heads and lives in a cave many miles away.
Finally, the king decides that he must do the unthinkable, and sacrifice a child to the dragon to appease it and hopefully keep it at bay. But the king’s younger sister, Adele, resolves to kill the dragon herself to stop him from hurting a child.
It’s the set up for as good of a fantasy/adventure story as any, but what Shirley McLain does with this set up is what brings this story above all of the rest.
Upon attempting to slay the dragon herself, Adele soon discovers that it is not a real dragon, but the cursed form of her missing fiancé, Anthony. Anthony was cursed to live as a dragon by two evil people who are so close to the king and Adele that one of them even lives in the palace.
Miranda has been Adele’s closest friend for their whole lives, but she betrays her in order to serve her lover, Lord Ashmore and hopefully claim the title of queen for herself. Hurt and confused, Adele knows that she and Anthony must find a way to stop the pair of scheming lovers before they manage to overthrow the king and claim Valdoria for themselves. But, to do so, they will need the help of the very witch that cursed Anthony to become a dragon, and they will need each other, now more than ever.
‘Princess Adele’s Dragon (Witches and Dragons Book 1),’ is a great story for a quick afternoon read that is guaranteed to get your blood pumping. It did have some grammatical type errors however, I had a great time reading this and I recommend it to anyone who enjoys fantasy! I can hardly wait for book 2! I give it 4.5 stars. I only knock down the rating because the book neess more editing.
