This is the seventeenth book in the Dragon Slayers' Academy series by Kate McMullan. Our girls have been reading a few different dragon stories and so this series is very interesting to them. The series centers around a school where children are taught to become dragon slayers, primarily for the purpose of enriching the school's headmaster, Mordred the Magnificent, with the slain dragon's hoard. So far he hasn't been the beneficiary of much dragon gold, but I get the feeling that with 19 books i This is the seventeenth book in the Dragon Slayers' Academy series by Kate McMullan. Our girls have been reading a few different dragon stories and so this series is very interesting to them. The series centers around a school where children are taught to become dragon slayers, primarily for the purpose of enriching the school's headmaster, Mordred the Magnificent, with the slain dragon's hoard. So far he hasn't been the beneficiary of much dragon gold, but I get the feeling that with 19 books in the series, he will keep sending his students out, hoping to succeed at long last. Now that I'm getting to the end of the series, I can appreciate the myriad ways in which the author conjured up money-making schemes for Mordred. It's a very entertaining story, with lots of subtle tongue-in-cheek humor and word play within the narrative. The drama in this book centers on summer vacation and Wiglaf and his friends' experiences at summer camp. It's a quick read (although this book is a 'summer super special' and is much longer than the other books) and I liked the story. Our oldest has been reading these stories on her own, so I'm reading them quickly to catch up with her in the series. I am sure that we will look for more of the books in this series at our local library.

One of the better entries in the series, the story takes place away from the DSA and utilizes the large cast of regulars who've passed in and out of the many books very well. We get a glimpse of home life for a number of our favorites as well as a new, double long adventure. Well done and told by a writer who clearly knows her world and characters from the inside out by now. A good decision to change it up for once. Recommended.
