Title: "Dragon Crystals" by Ava Richardson - A 4-Star Adventure!

"Dragon Crystals" by Ava Richardson is a captivating dragon fantasy novel that, while it took me a bit of time to fully immerse myself into, ultimately provided a rewarding adventure. Admittedly, I might have indulged in a surplus of dragon-themed novels lately (I clearly have a type 😂), which could explain my initial hesitation. However, as I adjusted to the intricately crafted setting and well-developed characters, I found myself increasingly drawn into the story.

The strength of this book undoubtedly lies in its world-building and character development. Richardson has a talent for creating a vivid and immersive fantasy world, and her characters are both relatable and multi-dimensional. Once I connected with these elements, I couldn't help but enjoy the unfolding adventure. "Dragon Crystals" may have taken a bit of patience to dive into, but for those who appreciate a well-crafted dragon fantasy, it's a journey worth embarking upon.

This continues the recent trend of dragon fantasy, and while it has some of the classic tropes, they're in the book because they work well. Overall, a good fantasy book with potential for more.
