Fire World is definitely the most interesting book of Chris D'lacey’s Last Dragon Chronicles series. It is a very big jump for D’lacey, because it introduces a completley new setting and completly new characters; and it doesn’t tie in with the rest of the series until the end, which I didn’t like, however, it was still a good book. Although the beginning was hard to grasp, D’lacey managed to connect to the early series masterfully. When you first start reading, your first thought is “What happened since the last book? Did I accidently skip a book? Well, the answer, unfourtuantly, is no. You are immediatly thrown into a completly new setting. The characters, too, seem different. However, as you get further, you notice that all of their names are somewhat similar to characters in the first five books. For example, the name Eliza looks a lot like the name Liz, and Penny is a lot like Liz and Lucy’s last name, Pennykettle. And the main character, David, has exactly the same name as the hero from the first five books. The world they live in, Cop:ernica, was mentioned earlier in the series, too. Its a lot like Earth, except there are only two animals, Katts and Firebirds(Which, interestingly enough, talking in Rrrrrhs, not unlike the clay dragons in the beginning who talk in Hrrrrrs), and that people have the ability to imagineer, or create something out of thin air using a thing called their Fain, an alien species mentioned often in the early series. Almost everything in their world, like in the the book The Giver, is controlled, although not as drastically. These things show that this book is a new book in the series, and not just some random side book As the book progresses, you start to see a reacurring theme: Every person in Cop:ernica is a lot like a character on Earth. Gwillana, the part-time villan from earlier, is represented on Cop:ernica by Aunt Qwyneth, and she is just as cunning and powerful as she was on Earth. Also, as the story unfolds, the word dragons starts to come up. Although dragons never existed on Cop:ernica, every person, strangely, believes they exist. It seems like Chris D’lacey could have finished the series in Dark Fire, but he decided to extend the story. I like the idea of the book, but it was very difficult to understand at the beginning. However, the end was amazing, because he masterfully tied in this book with all the rest, which must have been very hard. All of this together made a very well written book, from its subtle tie-ins to the series to the interesting plot and characters; this is a very good book. I would give this book a 4.5 out of 5, because it was a great book, but it was hard to grasp at the beginning. I would recommend it to people who like fantasy and science fiction, but they really need to have read the rest of the series first. After the David rain , Lucy and Zanna, and the Pennykettle dragons disappeared after destroyed the dark fire. But in a place between Earth and Co:pern:ica, lies a place called Ki:mera. In an alternate dimension, a 12-year old David lives with his friend Rosa in the libranium, with the firebirds on the upper floors. When David and Rosa accidentally hurt a firebird, They embark on a dangerous journey, un raveling the secrets of time, space, and the universe as the go along.I very interesting Book. You can definitely see the similarity between the characters in this book and the ones in the previous books. You can kind of understand how the physics behind the previous books in this book. During some parts of this book i became confused about what was happening.For example, I wasn't sure whether this civilization had technology or not.
Do You like book Fire World (2011)?
odd, but it did end up tying in to the rest of the series eventually
