5.0 out of 5 stars Most are Awesome., October 31, 1998

By	Jason Ott(crazyjc@erols.com) (D.C.) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Ultimate Dragon (Paperback)

I got this book 3 years ago, and every now and then I still go back to read it again. Some of the stories in here I could read forever, and apparently one author, Joanne Bertin, just came out with her first novel, based on the world in this book. Her story, "Dragonlord's Justice," is my favorite in this book, and can't wait to read her novel.
