Book Review: The Dragon of Ynys


Author: Minerva Cerridwen

Every time something goes missing from the village, Sir Violet, the local knight makes his way up to the dragon’s cave and negotiates the item’s return. But when the dragon hoards a person, that’s a step too far. Only to find a more complex mystery. A quest that leads Sir Violet far beyond the cave. The dutiful village knight embarks in his greatest adventure yet. 


The book was so pleasantly, wonderfully and unexpectedly good. Such a joyful, funny, super cute story about acceptance. I grew attached to Sir Violet and Snap the very second I started reading the story. Reading about a character who is asexual aromantic brought such joy to my heart. We need more books like this on the near future. 


A few parts were a bit preachy for my liking, had a couple of eye rolls here and there. The fact that this story is suitable for any age is so beyond this world. You can learn so much from this book about acceptance and you might even find your place in this world after reading this wonderful story. I didn’t want the story to end. 


Thumbs up to Certidwen for giving the female characters so much power and bravery.
