Book Review - Dragon Mountain by Katie Tsang

 

Billy Chan doesn't know what to expect from his culture summer camp that his parents are sending him to. The camp is in the middle-of-nowhere China and Billy doesn't know anyone there. When he arrives, he meets his fellow campers and is assigned to a group to work together during the summer. Dylan, Charlotte, Billy, and Ling-Fei, come across a mountain that has four powerful warrior dragons hidden behind the camp. The dragons need the help of the children to help defeat the Dragon of Death before it can unleash evil on the earth. The campers will need to travel to the Dragon Realm to help save the dragons. Can the team work together to help the dragons?

At first I thought the book was going great but, then it went downhill. The writing felt clinical and boring. It felt like the author was in a rush to get the book done and the writing became very straightforward. There was almost no time spent on building the friendships between the characters. They went from strangers to best friends who are willing to die for each other. There was almost no humor and somehow, every single time someone knew exactly what was needed at the right moment.

Book Review - Dragon Legend (Dragon Realm, #2) by Katie Tsang

 

Billy Chan and his friends travel to the Dragon Realm to save Dylan from the Dragon of Death. They will need to collect eight magical pearls to have a chance against the super powerful immortal Dragon of Death. They will need to travel through the Frozen Wasteland and to the imperial palaces of Ancient China to collect the pearls.

I thought the second novel was more entertaining than the first one. However, I still feel like the team dynamic is lacking and most of the time the characters are just adding to Billy's train of thought instead of being independent people. I am not the target demographics so, younger readers might not notice slight faults between character development and team building between characters. I did like that this book contained more humor than the previous novel. Young readers who are fascinated with dragons would enjoy this book.
