Silver Scales is a book I really really wanted to enjoy with the book cover and the mere fact it talked about dragons. Kildare needs to find dragon scales in order to save his soul which leads him comically to the room of Zenobia Gardsmark, who's a very spirited young woman.
I did really like the quibbles between Madden and Kildare, once I got my head around the fact Madden is a talking hare, they had quite a fun back and forth on a few occasions.
But personally I couldn't get my head into the book easily, it was difficult to read as I just couldn't get myself involved enough in the story easily. The idea of the book itself is fun, different, and I wish I had been able to enjoy it but I just couldn't get sucked into it.
