In DragonQuest, Kale’s journey of self-discovery continues through a succession of adventures and mishaps that leave you grinning with breathless, page-turning anticipation. I am in awe of Donita K. Paul’s intricate world-building that can rightfully stand alongside master storytellers Lewis and Tolkien. There is so much depth of heart to this fantastic adventure that it’s difficult to say what I most enjoyed. This book is a fantasy must for the very young at heart, no matter your age.”
