Review: Interesting start, not sure I'll continue

I found the start of the book interesting, filled with vivid albeit somewhat contradictory descriptions. Msg. English both shows and tells her readers what is happening, which can make parts quite wordy with descriptors that interrupt the flow of the story.The characters were interesting and fairly believable, and I loved the various critters that were introduced. Although, for a book entitled "Draykon", it took forever before we are allowed a glimpse of this creature.I found the ending to be quite abrupt, many questions left unanswered, and am unsure if I shall get the next book in the series to see if some of them might be answered.  Oddly enough, it felt like 'work' to get through this story - having recently finished college, I didn't want to read something I had to work to understand and get through!  There were sections of the book that I thoroughly enjoyed and simply lost myself in another world, but far too many sections where I felt I was reading something that would require my writing an academic paper about.
