I had a hard time getting started in this book. I opened it twice... and the third time I read it.It is a fantasy book which is mostly about interactions of people, tribes and travels... a dragon shows at the beginning of the book... but this is really NOT a book about dragons.The main character climbs out of a place called the Chasm... which seems rather mystical. He doesn't eat, doesn't drink and heals rapidly. There are human interactions between peoples of differing customs. Differing religious beliefs are also part of the tale.While I thought the book was hard to get into... it did get easier to read as I got into the story more. Good descriptions and this is a true adventure fantasy tale.I think this book will be enjoyed by many.Summon Your DragonsThe first book is a complete tale and stands alone by itself.There are two more books available following this first book... one fairly long and then, the second one is half the length.The White FoxandThe Tower of SheagilI read the description of the second book and it mentions a character that is barely heard of in the first book.If the two books were 99 each I would purchase them.The world in the books, I'm sure, will remain detailed and true to itself in all of the books for it is well-developed.
