Descriptions du produit

From School Library Journal

Grade 5-9-- Another installment in Wrede's appealing fantasy series, this title will be best appreciated by those already familiar with her cast of characters and their previous adventures. However, those who first encounter Queen Cimorene, King Mendenbar, Morwen (an untypical witch), and Telemain (a very verbose magician), along with their various animal friends and familiars in this book will certainly be inspired to seek out Dealing with Dragons (1990) and Searching for Dragons (1991, both Harcourt). Once again the problem is wizards: they're draining the Enchanted Forest of its magic and, worse, they've invaded the castle and stolen Mendenbar's magical sword. The quest to retrieve it and restore the Enchanted Forest is filled with adventure, peril, and humor, despite the fact that the bulk of the story takes place in only a few days. Wrede's strengths are numerous: sparkling dialogue, amusingly fractured fairy-tale conventions, solid characterization, plenty of action, and truly terrific chapter headings. Both her vocabulary and her sense of humor are pleasingly sophisticated, making this a fun and challenging read. The end result is a captivating and convincing fantasy that sets the stage (and whets the appetite) for future adventures. --Lisa Dennis, The Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh

From AudioFile

Rich characters and multifaceted plots are hallmarks of Wrede's Enchanted Forest Chronicles. The newly crowned Queen Cimorene; Morwen, the witch; Telemain, the magician; Kazul, King of the Dragons; and an array of cats pool their resources to confront the wizards who threaten the integrity of the Enchanted Forest. A full-cast recording is the perfect solution for presenting such an intense, rich, and involved story. Distinctive character voices enable the listener to differentiate the players quickly and focus intensely on their adventures. Devotion to the development of one or two characters affords each cast member opportunities for depth and playfulness. Listen intently to the end of the recording; the epilogue suggests a power struggle to come!

5.0étoiles sur 5 How does one review a book this clever???, Mai 13 2004
Par "rhodesisland" (APO, AP United States) - Voir tous mes commentaires
This book, this whole series is absolutely amazing. The wit, the interesting perspectives, and the going against tradition are tremendously refreshing. From a young adult's point of view, this book is perfect fantasy. It has the same sorts of characters, dragons, princes, princesses, heroes and so on, but it shows them in such a new view. I know that I am tired of the same old princess stories, so when I found this series, I was really pleased that there was an author out there that thought that the stories could use a little revamping too.

5.0étoiles sur 5 Witty and Just Fun to Read, Juil 30 2003
Par Sirius Star (Goshen, KY United States) - Voir tous mes commentaires
Dealing was Cimorene's book. Searching was Mendanbar's book. Talking was Daystar's book and Calling is everyone's favorite witch, Morwen's book.

The Dragon King, Kazul (even though she's female. To have two names for the same job is just confusing) is missing! And of course it's the wizards who have done the doing and are burning the Enchanted Forest with their staffs. It's up to Cimorene, Kazul, Morwen, Morwen's feline friends, Telemain, and a blue flying donkey with overlarge wings who used to be a rabbit to find her and stop the wizards!

This book is just witty and fun. Ms. Wrede has a real talent of making a good, fun to read book. I wish that after the fourth book, Talking to Dragons, Ms. Wrede will make books like Tinkering with Dragons which can be from Telemain's perspective, or Listening to Dragons which can be from Kazul's perspective, or even Fighting with Dragons which could even be from Antorell's perspective, or maybe even Riding on Dragons from one of Morwen's cats perspective.

Ms. Wrede if you're out there we want to see more Enchanted Forest Chronicales Books!

5.0étoiles sur 5 A Great Adventure, Juil 28 2003
Par Chrissy M. Squires (East Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania United States) - Voir tous mes commentaires
This book was a great story from beginning to end, following the marriage of Cimorene and Mendanbar, it is shown from Morwen the witch's point of view and tells of new troubles going on in the Enchanted Forest. There is a war brewing and with an ending that will leave you begging for more. Once you finish this book you will absolutely have to continue to the fourth book from the Enchanted Forest Chronicles.
