Book Description

Release Date: May 27 2008 | Series: Jennifer Scales (Book 3)
Scaly skin, family fights...it's tough being a teenage dragon.

Jennifer was just starting to get comfortable in her own skin, scaly as it is. She should have known that, as half-weredragon, half-beaststalker, things don't stay normal for too long...

Following through on a promise made to her mother, Jennifer agrees to go to Crescent Valley, where Jennifer and her father find refuge with other weredragons, and where they meet Xavier Longtail. Xavier, a powerful elder dragon, doesn't believe in peaceful co-existence, and after he stirs up trouble in her family, Jennifer wonders if he isn't right. She's about to go nuts with all the fighting, when her ex, Skip, comes to her rescue and whisks her off to the movies, where she falls asleep...

Waking up, Jennifer finds her hometown overrun by weachnids, dangerous half-werewolves, half-spiders. Weredragons are long extinct...except for Jennifer, of course, and the ominous Xavier Longtail, and it's up to them to return the universe to normal. Can they trust each other enough to pull it off-or are they the last of a dying breed?

4.0 out of 5 stars Courtesy of Teens Read Too Aug 14 2008
By TeensReadToo
Format:Paperback
Jennifer Scales had the shock of her life when she discovered that she wasn't truly human. She found out who she really was right when she began to morph, which was perfect timing for her parents to tell her how she is beaststalker and weredragon. To make matters even worse, both the halves that make up Jennifer are at odds with each other.

Jennifer wants all sides to have peace with one another, and her trip to Crescent Valley shows this. Bringing along a human, Susan, her best friend who she finally revealed her secret to, another weredragon, a beaststalker, her friend, Eddie, and a werachnid, her ex-boyfriend Skip, Jennifer really does hope that things will go peacefully.

If Eddie and Skip can survive their fight with one another and her parents can get along, then anything can happen.

There at Crescent Valley is Xavier Longtail, a respected dragon who didn't fully support Jennifer when she was being chosen as ambassador, only because he doesn't believe beaststalkers and weredragons can live among one another.

Before she knows it, Jennifer is slowly influenced by Xavier's words, but not for too long. Soon after, an epic battle erupts, and the weredragons biggest threat, the werarchnids, have a huge advantage over them. Saved by a necklace given to her by her ex, Skip, Jennifer is left with Xavier, her family gone. This means that they both need to find common ground to save the weredragons and to save Jennifer's friends and family.

Will the idea of peace be totally obliterated or can it still have a meaning?

A wonderful third installment to the already imaginative series, THE SILVER MOON ELM continues Jennifer's journey of acceptance with even more obstacles to face. Jennifer becomes a stronger character and more history of all the species' is revealed. Detailed and intricate, MaryJanice Davidson and Anthony Alongi do not disappoint their readers.

3.0 out of 5 stars Jennifer begins to grow up - somewhat. 3.5-4 Stars Aug 16 2007
By T&B, etc - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
The Jennifer Scales series is contracted for 4 books, which is a good thing as the ending of The Silver Moon Elm (Book 3) opens up a host of plot arcs that beg for a resolution (in a good way).

That said, while I enjoyed this 3rd installment of Jennifer's story, I also found that I didn't enjoy it as much as the first two books. Part of this is unavoidable as the book is somewhat more grim than the previous books, despite the presence of Jennifer's snarky humor. Issues of love, friendship, loyalty, family, death, betrayal, and more are raised, and for the most part, dealt with fairly well. On the other hand, Jennifer's whining was annoying in several instances, which, admittedly, is typical of kids (and adults), as was her dealings with her friends, ranging from loyalty to insensitivity.

4.0 out of 5 stars Keeps getting better July 26 2007
By Animus - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
Another great read from the writing team of Alongi & Davidson (Alongi). Jennifer is a great character who is real. Not someone's idea of what a teenager is or what they remember being a teenager was like. Of course you can't really know how a teenager would react to were-arachnids, were-dragons, alternate realities and the genocidal rampages of a team of psycho freaks out to destroy you and everyone you love. Oh, have I said to much? I really loved this book. It was clever, well written and had a great balance of excitement and humor. This is not just a "teen" book. It's a great fantasy book about a teen. I think Harry Potter has shown people that just because the main character is under 18 that doesn't mean that nobody above that age would enjoy it. Don't pass this by.

4.0 out of 5 stars A good scales book Oct 8 2009
By Cindy Clark - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
If you liked the first 2 books, you'll like this one. There's a point where the story gets a bit too weird (even for a weredragon story) but all, in all it's a good book. Parts are quite riveting.
