Review of 'The Lost Chronicles (Vol. 2): Dragons of the Highlord Skies' on 'Goodreads'
3 stars
i was glad to finally finish this series. I had always wanted to read about the adventure of Ice Wall Castle, and was disappointed when that adventure was left out of the original Chronicles Trillogy. I could have done without the story of Kitiara, though she was never one of my favourite characters.
