1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Damaged Product! By Little Buddha Book had internally damaged pages that we didn't find until my son went to read it 9 months after we ordered it. Sat on his book shelf until he got to this book in this series. So now we are stuck with damaged goods. Amazon only allows ~ 45 days for returns! So the one star is for product quality, not story quality!
1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Annoying ending. By P. Bell I am disappointed in how this book just dead-ends. Even without the abrupt ending, I didn't t enjoy this second book of the series quite as much as the first. I am still pondering whether I should throw more money at the final third.
1 of 2 people found the following review helpful. Good follow-up to "The Menagerie," with some minor annoyances By Kenya Starflight WARNING: Review contains minor spoilers.The first book in the "Menagerie" series -- the story of a special reserve for mythical creatures in Xanadu, Wyoming -- was an enjoyable enough story, even if it didn't quite reach the levels of epicness that made "Fablehaven" such a hit. I see it as a good stepping-stone book, one great for kids who might not be quite ready for "Fablehaven" or "Harry Potter." The book did manage to resolve its main conflict -- the missing gryphon cubs -- but at the same time it ended on a blatant and annoying cliffhanger/sequel hook. I figured the unanswered questions about the goings-on in both the Menagerie and the main character's life would be enough to get people to read the next book, but apparently the author felt otherwise...The second book in the series, "Dragon On Trial," suffers from some of the same problems as the first book. But it's still a fun read, full of both new and familiar mythical creatures and told with a rollicking sense of fun and adventure.Logan, newcomer to Xanadu, and Zoe, daughter of the caretakers of the Menagerie, have just managed to avert crisis and save both the gryphon cubs and the sanctuary... only to immediately discover that Pelly, the golden-egg-laying goose whose precious eggs keep the Menagerie operating, has been murdered. Despite only blood and feathers (but no body) to point to the grisly crime, all evidence seems to implicate Scratch, one of the three dragons living at the Menagerie. If Scratch is found guilty, he will be executed... and the Menagerie will be shut down. Logan, Zoe, and Zoe's foster/merman brother Blue have to uncover the culprit and save the Menagerie, with a little help from the arrogant kitsune Keiko and a rowdy family of were-creatures. And to further complicate matters, Zoe's brother has been acting very strangely since coming home from Tracker training, Logan's dad seems to be hiding secrets about his mom, and the school librarian is up to something fishy that could doom the Menagerie...Like its predecessor, this book's writing is serviceable but not great, focused on telling the story and fairly bland when it comes to descriptions and word-play. The characters, however, make up for it -- Sutherland has a knack for conversations, and some of the best passages come from the banter and bickering between characters. And the characters manage to be interesting and not fall into the usual stereotypes -- Logan is likable and one can't help but want to root for him. The were-creature family are some of the best minor characters, and my favorite scene in the book comes from an unexpected visit to their chaotic home.The book also includes plenty of creature action, from the well-known beasts like dragons and unicorns to some letter-known beasts like the qui-lin. Sutherland hits the right balance with these creatures as well, keeping true to the most prominent traits of the myths but also giving the creatures some clever twists of her own. The dragons can be difficult to understand, as their speech patterns read like the Hulk took language classes from Yoda, but this is a minor annoyance.Like its predecessor, however, I'm a bit annoyed that this book manages to resolve the immediate conflict, only to throw in a last-minute cliffhanger and sequel hook. I thought there were plenty of unanswered questions that would still hold readers' interest in the inevitable third book, but evidently the author felt that without a cliffhanger ending, no one would want to read the next book. Don't underestimate your readers, Sutherland... if you make your story and characters compelling enough, you won't have to resort to cheap tricks like cliffhangers to keep your audience reading.Not the best book I've read this year, this book is still fun to read, and I enjoyed the world and characters a great deal. I do hope the next book answers a few more questions, and that the author grows out of her tendency to toss in a cliffhanger at the last minute. Only time will tell...
