The fantastic land of Amara is recovering from years of war inflicted on its citizens by outside forces-as well as from the spiritual apathy corroding the Amarans' hearts. With Kale and her father serving as dragon keepers for Paladin, the dragon populace has exploded. It's a peaceful, exciting time of rebuilding. And yet, an insidious, unseen evil lurks just beneath the surface of the idyllic countryside.Truth has never been more important, nor so difficult to discern.
As Kale and her father are busy hatching, bonding, and releasing the younger generation of dragons as helpers throughout the kingdom, the light wizard has little time to develop her skills. Her husband, Sir Bardon-despite physical limitations resulting from his bout with the stakes disease-has become a leader, serving on the governing board under Paladin. When Kale and Bardon set aside their daily responsibilities to join meech dragons Regidor and Gilda on a quest to find a hidden meech colony, they encounter sinister forces. Their world is under attack by a secret enemy... can they overcome the ominous peril they can't even see?
Prepare to experience breathtaking adventure and mind-blowing fantasy as never before in this dazzling, beautifully-crafted conclusion to Donita K. Paul's popular DragonKeeper Chronicles fantasy series.

This is like . . . 3.5 stars? 3.75 stars? Not quite a full four stars, because the twists regarding Toopka are super weird. Also, Gilda is intensely annoying, and I spent most of the book wanting to slap her (even if she did have her better moments, and I could appreciate her direct approach at times). But in general, this is better than I remembered it. Kale and Bardon continue to be adorable, and I appreciate that being married ((view spoiler)[and pregnant! (hide spoiler)]) isn't a reason toHaving read the whole series and comparing each book, I think I liked the storylines here in DragonLight the best out of the entire series. The quest for the meech colony was interesting and quite different from the storylines of the previous books. It was also interesting to see how things played out with the introduction of the "Followers", who in many (unfortunate) ways seem like a modern day cult. Kale and Bardon's attention and efforts focus on both of these storylines through-out the book.
The final book (so far) in the DragonKeeper Chronicles. I'm sad to be done with this series because I've really enjoyed them. I look forward to starting a new series by this author.
I was under the mistaken impression this was the first in a series, not the finale. Then I was under the mistaken impression that this 'fantasy lite' was geared towards children - when, probably, its target audience is families. Tricky to write to appeal across such a broad age range. Maybe it would have better been directed at children, trusting that it would appeal to the child-like in adults.Without a background in the earlier books in the series, it was difficult to know exactly who Paladin
I want to love these books, I really do. I've found so much to like in each of them, but I just can't get past the heavy-handed preaching. In this last one we find out that it's not just wrong to disagree with the mainstream religion, diversity of thought is more evil than a mountain-sized, man-eating dragon. I find that kind of message more terrifying than the lackluster villains in these books. Evidently, it's ok to look and act differently, as long as your beliefs fall in line with the
A fantastic conclusion to the series!!I've honestly enjoyed this series so much. At first, I was slightly put off by the dragons because all the dragons that have featured in the books I've read have been evil, but here there were good dragons. And boy, did I fall in love with them! Each of them were unique and fun to read about. This novel tackled a different enemy than the former novels. This time the enemy came from 'within' and dealt with themes of compromise and deceit, which I think was
