Review Detail

What I liked:
Eoin Cofer is best known for his Artemis series, which has enthralled the middle-grade age group for years. He takes fantasy reading to the next level; in this one, he takes a fairy tale of sorts and weaves a story with twists that I did not see coming. You have the primary type of fairy tale evil stepfamily who wants to rule and find a creative way to eliminate the true heir. Three tasks are laid out, and you think that good will win, but will it? I think the tasks are creative because they benefit a dragon with lots of everything: his fire, the ability to fly, and respect. There are great morals to be learned, as you expect in a fairy tale, and this will be perfect for a reader reluctant to read a longer story.
Final Verdict:
Each page is beautifully illustrated and works well for the Middle-Grade age group, who enjoy artistry pictures and the tale. Three Tasks for Dragon is a Middle-Grade novel, but I would recommend it for 12 and older. Knight, kingdom, magic, and Dragons fans will enjoy this one quite a bit.
