A fun choose-your-own-adventure story

"Discarded Dragons" is an exciting story well-suited to younger audiences. The writing is great and the main character, a cast-aside mechanical dragon, makes for the perfect underdog protagonist. The characters in the story are mostly dragons or other automatons and, due to the age range and nature of the genre, are somewhat shallow in depth. The Maker is barely a character but in one particular direction of the story, there is a girl who is pretty solid considering how much page-time she has. The plot of the story can, as this genre implies, go in many different directions based on the decisions the reader makes. Some are better than others, but all are constricted by the overall length of the tale. Nevertheless, there were two which took some truly unexpected twists and left an impression. In conclusion, expectations for this book should be tempered by the many limitations of the chose-your-own-adventure genre. It will not be a master’s thesis topic for any literary students but will make a fun afternoon for children up to young teens.
