This review is from: The Dragon Crown (Paperback)

a great book about the Emperor's hatchlings and Toma's sudden reappearances (although he was really there all along) and evil plots. Kyl, the heir to the Dragon throne, travels to Talak and Penacles to visit the rulers before his coronation, accompanied by the power behind the throne- his brother Grath,Drakhorse, and his mentor Benjin Traske. Interesting things happen while they are there- an assasination attempt that ends up killing Toos, a ceremony in the crypts of Talak. When they return, they are taken prisoner by none other than the infamous and powerful Duke Toma at the Manor. It all finishes in Kivan Grath, where a battle to the death between Toma and Cabe has a somewhat tragic ending. But I cried in Godzilla. Toma has always been a favorite of mine- the drake you love to hate. A must for all Knaak fans!
