Good, but repetitve
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
Some of the stories are quite similar to others. Of course, they all have to do with dragons, but several fall in the Hero goes to slay Dragon formula. The Orson Scott Card does not seem to fit in the traditional dragon formula and is the outstanding story. The Anne MaCaffrey is good but overwritten at points. I expected more from the Zelazny. It was very good, but Zelazny has done such mind-blowing work that this seems to be a bit trite. The Friesner is hillarious and the best of the funny stories in this book. The Martin and Tilton are quite good, but not estradordinary. The rest were merely okay, except for The Ever-After which had horrid prose.

This was a fairly good book. It gave a lot of information that someone might use while reading any of Anne McCaffrey's books. I liked this book because of that. Anyone who likes dragons could use this book.
Light but entertaining

Very enjoyable stories, but light weight reading.The inclusion of the first few chapters of Anne McCaffrey's Dragonriders of Pern disguised as a short story was disappointing though.
A delight!

Dragon lovers: marvel at the some of the most enchanting dragon stories ever written! Could have used a few more serious tales, though with dragons as heroes.
