Book Reviews of Dragon's Blood: The Pit Dragon Chronicles, Volume One (Pit Dragon Chronicles)

Book Review: Dragon's Blood ... A Must Read!
Summary: 5 Stars

"I will fill my own bag" was a quote made several times by the main character, Jakkin Stewart. His "bag" was a pouch he kept hanging around his neck (like all the slaves) and it contained gold coins. Fifteen-year old Jakkin Stewart is a bond servant in Master Sarkkhan's dragon barns. Jakkin decided his only hope to earn his freedom is to steal a dragon to secretly train as a fighter. In the end--Jakkin did earn his freedom.

The author,Jane Yolen, was born in New York City on February 11, 1939 and raised in California, New York, and Connecticut. Her father was a teacher in history. She received her bachelor's degree from Smith College in 1960 and a master's degree in education from the University of Massachusetts Amherst in 1976. She has three children: Heidi Stemple, Adam Stemple, and Jason Stemple she also has several grandchildren. She was married to a computer scientist David Stemple from 1962 until his death from cancer on March 22, 2006.

The emotional impact the book had on me was it kept me in suspense throughout each chapter. If you enjoy stories about dragon adventures, this is a must read for you. It was full of action and suspense.
