Product Description 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.

Good Series November 23, 2008 When I first picked up Dragonspell I fell in love. The first three books I thought were great, I fell in love with just about all the characters and considered it a great unique read. Kale was by far the most believable character and I loved Paladin and all of their adventures.
However, I'm probably the only one but I felt the series lacked from Dragonfire to Dragonlight. I was kind of disappointed. I felt some of the characters lost substance and I felt the writing was a little choppy in the fourth one.
But Dragonlight I felt was better than the fourth novel. I felt it was more romantic between Bardon and Kale and I was happy with it overall. Bardon annoyed me in this book a lot. He comes of too preachy and I kept saying "shut up Bardon" in my head. Kale again I felt was wonderful. She never lost her spunky personality and I felt she was always the one messing up and Bardon was too perfect and I felt a "that's it?" feeling at the end of Dragonlight.
I really rate it 3.5. I thought it was very solid and very spiritual and very clean (of course it targeted a younger audience). But wish there was more of a real feeling when I read it. I'm not trying to down the series but I felt it lacking toward the end that's all. *dodges thrown objects* Other than that I did enjoy it for it being very wholesome :-). I will definitely read other books by Donita K. Paul!
A great finish! October 13, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Ah, the end of the series, a bitter sweet feeling indeed. Join Kale and Bardon again as they journey with Regidor and Gilda to find the lost Meech community, and to save Amara from a new order that seem to contradict everything Wulder and Paladin stand for.
Stunning Ending October 3, 2008 A heart wrenching story that will take you to places you never thought were possible. This was the perfect ending to the series and is great for all ages. This book has so many elements that I can only scratch the surface of what it is like. To find out more just read the book and have a wonderful time, though it is recommended to start with the first book in the series.

This was a great ending to the Dragonkeeper Chronicles. I was kind of disappointed that it was ending, but I can't wait for the new series.

The conclusion to Donita K. Paul's Dragon Keeper Chronicles tends to make you stay up till 3:00 AM reading. Amara is (finally) a peaceful nation under the rule of Paladin. Kale Allerion and her husband Bardon decide to, with the Meeches Regidor and Gilda, to discover the Meech Colony in the Northern Reaches to present Gilda's egg. Little did they know that they would encounter The Followers (a nasty bunch if I do say so myself) and Mot Angra, a black dragon the size of a mountain. The perfect blend of character, humor, and action, Mrs. Paul end her best-selling series with a roar.
