I couldn't get into it, so I gave up. I'm not giving it a rating because it wouldn't be fair.Jelindel is a teenager watching the stars when all her family and friends are killed. Disguised as a boy she makes her living as a scribe in a market place where she meets Zimack who gets paid to run messages. Through him she eventually meets Daretor, a swordsman. Through events that are forced upon them they travel together seeking links that are part of an aienl mail shirt that has the power to change the seat of power in the world. So naturally, everyone else wants it as well...I started out
There is a lot about this book that I thoroughly enjoyed. It consisted of a rich and detailed world which followed its own rules about magic consistently. The story mostly follows the quest of a young girl scholar, Jalindel, to find all the dragonlinks which are powerful weapons. There are many twists and turns along the way and political plots and intrigues which keep it interesting, although I did sometimes find myself confused about certain events.. But all in all, it was a fast paced
I love this book to DEATH. I've read it through four or five times, and the same goes for the the sequel Dragonfang, which is almost as good as the original - and though Dragonsight and Wardragon are perhaps not as brilliant as these first two novels in the series, they're nothing to sneer at, because they're all wonderful.Brilliance! Paul Collins has created loveable, interesting characters that you become enthralled with from the first word. And the world he creates is amazing - simply
Read this book after picking it somewhat randomly off the library shelf. It was a fairly good tale with some moderately relatable characters and a somewhat interesting storyline. Parts of it did not come together well for me, so I am only giving it three stars. Enjoyed reading it but would not rush to recommend it to others.
'The Jelindel Chronicles' is one of those series that you love to read so you can track the characters through exciting quests and coming-of-age turning points in their lives. Paul Collins has written an action-packed, fantasy saga, full of twists and turns. In this quest of good versus evil, Jelindel is a young 14 year old daughter of the noble Mediesar family, who are slaughtered one night by the evil Preceptor and his ally Fared. The 14-year-old Countess Jelindel is the only one to escape,
