I really enjoyed Creel and many of the side characters as well. This book was very well written, flowed nicely, and was easy to read. When Creel chooses a pair of beautiful blue slippers in exchange for leaving the dragon alone she has no idea of the events she has triggered. The dragon however can’t be bothered with Creel and offers her a counter deal. I loved the characters, the magic, and the dragons a ton.Ĭreel is offered as a sacrifice to a dragon because her aunt wants a noble boy to come and rescue her and make the family rich. This is the first book in the Dragon Slippers series and was a fantastic YA adventure fantasy. It’s not until later that Creel learns a shocking truth: She possesses not just any pair of shoes, but ones that could be used to save her kingdom, which is on the verge of war, or destroy it.” After all, nobody has seen a dragon in centuries.īut when the beast actually appears, Creel not only bargains with him for her life, she also ends up with a rare bit of treasure from his hoard, not gold or jewels, but a pair of simple blue slippers-or so she thinks. It’s a ploy to lure a heroic knight so that he will fight the dragon, marry Creel out of chivalrous obligation, and lift the entire family out of poverty. She can’t believe her aunt wants to sacrifice her to the local dragon. Stand Alone or Series: 1st book in the Dragon Slippers series
