This book is a collection of stories from the masters of fantasy, each with their own unique take on the concept of Dragon. I enjoyed a few of the tails, like the Dragonlord's Justice and the Dragon on the Bookshelf. Others offer unique looks at dragons from other cultures, but didn't grab my attention. Serpent Feather has enticed me to research the Inca, Maya, and Toltec races.

For those who love the dragon motif, I'd recommend it. Otherwise, its a middle of the road book. ( )
