Icefire (Chris D'Lacey, Scholastic Books, 352 pages, ISDN 978-0439672467, May 1, 2006) the interesting sequel to the Fire Within, is a very enjoyable read. There are many new characters like Grockle, a baby dragon, "Auntie Gwyneth", a sibyl, and Loral, a ancient polar bear. In this story David learns the secret of the Gawain's fire tear, Liz has a dragon child, and a Inuit legend begins to come alive. Full of description, this book seams to come alive. This book was a LOT better than the first book in this dragon series. It answered many questions that were brought up at the end of the first book. I really enjoyed reading this fascinating tale and cannot wait to read the third book.Suggested Ages: 9-14
