5.0 out of 5 stars Interesting and fun Book for everyone, June 10, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Dragon Companion (Paperback)
Callander used a creative but not too complicated style of writing to keep the reader interested, whether they're an adult or a kid. All in all, a great book to get into and hard to put down!

5.0 out of 5 stars Fun Fantasy for anyone, July 22, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Dragon Companion (Paperback)
Dragon Companion is a typical fantasy novel/fairy tale, complete with magic, castles, princesses and dragons, and one ordinary guy who gets tossed into this world where humans are considered to be myths. Callander takes many overused elements and puts a fresh spin on them, making this novel incredibly fun to read. If you have some free time, this book is a good bet for some inexpensive entertainment.

5.0 out of 5 stars For someone who has never read any fantasy, November 26, 2006
This review is from: Dragon Companion (Paperback)
Reviewed by Kornelia Longoria for Reader Views (11/06)


Thomas Whitehead is just a regular, down-to-earth librarian, living an ordinary life in Iowa. One day, he suddenly finds himself in a magical world of dragons, dwarves and knights. At first confused, Tom quickly adapts himself to new circumstances and quickly becomes the Dragon Companion, which is a very honorable title in this strange new world. He also soon proves that the title is very well deserved. Going from one adventure to another, Tom soon becomes very comfortable among his new friends but also becomes more and more involved in exciting but sometimes dangerous escapades.

In his first book in the Companion Series, the author introduces us to the world of talking dragons and exciting adventures. Magic is an everyday thing and dragons become your best friends. The language of the book is quite simple but very descriptive and vivid, and the readers can easily assimilate themselves with the story. The main characters are very likable. The only complaint that I might have is that the adventures could have been a little more dramatic, with more danger elements. I would love to see more evil characters and the way Tom and his friends deal with them. It looked like Thomas did everything too easily, like it was his everyday job back in the normal world in Iowa.

I quite enjoyed the book and I'm very curious what kind of adventures Don Callander offers in the second and third book of the series. I think "Dragon Companion" would be a great book to offer to someone who has never read any fantasy books so they can familiarize themselves with the genre.

Received book free of charge.
