Dragon Moon by Carole Wilkinson is a great ending to the Dragon Keeper Series. The journey to the Dragon Haven probably was the best of Ping and Kai's travels yet. They surprisingly meet up with a few people from the past and make amends. The most interesting one would be Jun, who helps Ping and Kai through a skirmish by the Great Wall of China. The best part of the book would without a doubt be their arrival at the Dragon Haven. It's a surprising turn, when the Haven is found to be deserted, but all is well when Ping and Kai find the Dragon Plateau. Although it's not the Haven, I find the mystical Plateau a cool home and satisfactory place for Kai.
The Invaders by John Flanagan would be one of my favorite books. One big reason would be the characters themselves. I particularly enjoy the constant, friendly bickering that happens within the story from character to character. Thorn especially cracks me up. The training session at Shelter Bay was a great part to go by; it was fun to watch the Heron's get into ship-shape, and Thorns revealing moment. The battle at Limmat against Zavac was the best part, Hal's ingenious battle planning put up to quite an interesting fight. There's nothing like a bunch of Skandians on a war rampage. Out of everything, the Mangler was the best. I could completely imagine the pirates running away as their towers and walls collapsed.
