Product Description
One Dragon Egg Holds the Key to the Future.
Once a slave, Kale is given the unexpected opportunity to become a servant to Paladin. Yet this young girl has much to learn about the difference between slavery and service.
A Desperate Search Begins…
A small band of Paladin’s servants rescue Kale from danger but turn her from her destination: The Hall, where she was to be trained. Feeling afraid and unprepared, Kale embarks on a perilous quest to find the meech dragon egg stolen by the foul Wizard Risto. First, she and her comrades must find Wizard Fenworth. But their journey is threatened when a key member of the party is captured, leaving the remaining companions to find Fenworth, attempt an impossible rescue, and recover the egg whose true value they have not begun to suspect…
Weaving together memorable characters, daring adventure, and a core of eternal truth, Dragonspell is a finely crafted and welcome addition to the corpus of fantasy fiction.

 Great for introducing fantasy. November 3, 2008

I initially bought this book and the rest in the series for myself, but ended up giving them to my younger sister. As someone who loves Lord of the Rings, the Inheritance cycle, the Books of Pellinor, the Chronicles of Narnia and so forth, I found this series a little tedious and boring. My sister who hasn't really read fantasy LOVED them. I'd recommend this series to kids who were curious about the fantasy genre and hadn't really read anything to compare this to. Because...when you start comparing this series to Lord of the Rings and such...well, there's no comparison.
 This book opens the door to a new world... October 10, 2008
Open this book and you'll enter into Kale's world. A world of dragons, dragons that come in all sizes, colors, and gifts. A world of emerlindians, o'rants, mariones, and many more races! Discover Wulder, the God of this world, and learn his precepts as you set out on this journey with Kale, the Dragon Keeper.
 Good Book October 5, 2008
Kale, the village slave for River Away, is nobody special--or so she believes. After discovering a minor dragon egg, the village elders send her to The Hall for training. But Paladin's servants send her on a different quest: to recover the meech egg Wizard Risto stole from Wizard Fenworth. One of the best aspects of this book was how the sentient races differ from the traditional elves, dwarves, etc. The doneels and kimens are particularly original.
This book is good!! September 25, 2008

A friend brought this one to my attention immediately after she read it, so I had to grab a copy and read it. About halfway through the book, I could see why she loved it.
Donita K. Paul has great characters, an exciting story line, and truth that applies to our lives today. I finished DragonSpell in record time and put it on my wish list. The rest of the series is just as good or better!
