2.0 out of 5 stars Charming story but........, July 17, 2001
By 
J. Okamoto (Staten Island, NY USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Dragon Healer: Book 1 (Bk. 1) (Paperback)
The author's wife dropped an email to me, suggesting that I might enjoy this book. I ordered it and read through it. This is a charming story and, although I mostly confine my dragon reading to McCaffrey and a few others, the story seemed fairly original to me.

The problem with this book is that the author desperately needed an editor. Misuse of words ("heard of runner beast", "no bases in fact"), lack of punctuation, grammatical errors all marred the story. The dialogue is repetitive and doesn't ring true. It's a shame, because without these difficulties, this would be a really good read.

I can't write a novel and applaud Mr. Adams for his effort, but in future, a good proof-reader and editor may come in handy to reduce the kind of errors that ruined the suspension of reality for me.

4.0 out of 5 stars great read bad grammer and spelling, January 17, 2008
By 
Wendy D. Ridenour (MERRITT ISLAND, FL USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: The Dragon Healer: Book 1 (Bk. 1) (Paperback)
I absolutely love books with dragons, and I really loved this book. I found it to be extremely original and not simply a retelling of different versions of older dragon stories.

The only real problem I had was bad grammar and spelling. The spelling was what got me the most. I could handle the punctuation problems, and grammar but the spelling tanked the story.

However, I highly recommend this book if you can look past all the errors. Considering that this was his first published story he did very well. The shame of the errors is strictly on his publisher and editor for not catching them.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Most Pleasing Tale, August 14, 2001
This review is from: The Dragon Healer: Book 1 (Bk. 1) (Paperback)
The "Dragon Healer" is a most pleasing tale, which transports the reader to an ethereal world filled with fantasy creatures. Terra and Fienna are likeable as the main characters, and their adventures flow continually as new dreams unfold. Because of this, the book is difficult to put down, and the reader can't help but look forward to the sequel. This is a book which has appeal for people of all ages.
