(4) 4-6 Last Dragon Chronicles series. Extensive backstory begins this sometimes disjointed series ender. Oft-mentioned Agawin finally arrives, weaving together David, Zanna, Alexa, Lucy, and the Pennykettle dragons' stories. The leaps in time can be dizzying, and the ending (which questions the entire tale's reality) is only somewhat convincing. Despite some plot holes here and there, series fans will appreciate the closure.
