Talking to Dragons by Patricia C. WredeMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
I didn't like this one as well as the first three, I think because the implications are so sad (and as I suspected unacknowledged by the book). In fact, it's even worse than I predicted to begin with. Not only have Mendenbar and Cimorene been separated for 17 years, he's been sentient and aware that whole seventeen years and essentially alone in the dark in a closet. Also, Cimorene has been separated from her friends who don't appear to have been socializing in her absence with each other. That makes me really sad.
I also feel like the first three books are better written (which makes sense as this last one was actually written first).
The book ends on a happy note with order restored, but on the whole, I prefer the first three books of the series.
