The Hero and the Crown: Aerin has never fitted into the king's court. She is a half Damarian, daughter of a Northerner, shows no sign of the Gift, has tamed a lame, wild stallion, and is a dragon-killer. Those aren't the usual hobbies of a princess. Because she doesn't fit in, she avoids the court, and so since not many people go to the library, she goes. And finds a recipe for a fire-defying mixture. This is the beginning of the dragon hunts. The North raises a Great Dragon, and she fights it. Because if she doesn't, it will destroy Damar, because the one who woke it has the Crown, Damar's stolen treasure.
This is the inspiration for Dragon Slayer. So i like it. It was really cool how it seemed like the fight with Maur is the climax, but no, there's more! it all fits together so well. My favorite character is Talat, the horse. he's almost like C.S. Lewis's talking horses-it's like he's about to talk all the time.
Going to the Grand Canyon with Russ in a few weeks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ruth,
Can we have the Rainy Day Cafe open for business next Tues through Thursday? (when you aren't in school, of course) I think we could help each other out...you'd get business with people coming by to help out in the yard, and I'd get people willing to help out in the yard when they come to eat at the RDC!
Looking forward to seeing you!
