Dragon Kiss: 06/28/20

Dragon Kiss

Dragon Kiss by E.D. Baker is the seventh in the Frog Princess series. Though set in the time of Princess Millie, this one is primarily told from the point of view of a young love-sick dragon named Audun.

Audun wishes to woo Princess Millie but do that he needs a way to be human some of the time, just as she can sometimes be a dragon. Audun is sent on a quest to ask the king of the Ice Dragons for the secret to transformation. Before he's taught, he is sent out on another set of quests.

Through Audun's quests Baker expands her world and the cultures of the dragons. She presents two distinct cultures as well as surrounding lands with enemies and allies. As an outsider, Audun's ignorance combined with his youthful gives him the fresh perspective needed for diplomacy.

The eighth book in the series is A Prince Among Frogs (2010).

Five stars
