I found the change to first person narration somewhat jarring, as it gives T ALKING WITH DRAGONS a completely different feel to the other books there was little of the humour prevalent in the previous books. TALKING WITH DRAGONS marks a change in the Enchanted Forest Chronicles, as Wrede changes the narrative from the third person, in the initial books, to first person in this one allowing us to follow Daystar’s story from his perspective. This book follows the story of Daystar who at sixteen gets handed a magic sword by his mother and sent into the Enchanted Forest, and has to work out for himself what he has to do. Wrede is the fourth book in the Enchanted Forest Chronicles. It’s going to take a particularly hotheaded fire-witch, a very verbose lizard, and a badly beahving dragon to help him figure it all out.Īnd those good manners certainly won’t help! Where is he supposed to go? And why does everyone he meets seem to know who he is? Especially because his house sits on the edge of the Enchanted Forest and his mother is Queen Cimorene.īut the tricky part is figuring out what he’s supposed to do with the magic sword. and it’s a very wise lesson – one that might just help him after his mom hands him a magic sword and kicks him out of the house.
