Then Hap and Umber go to a land with an evil king but they go to see the dragon games. After the games Umber takes the dragon eggs and a baby dragon so that he can set them free. So they take one of the warships and sail off. The king dies and the super evil prince sets off after them.

    " I am really wondring about the connection with Hap's brother. He seemed like a weary guy without a job and parents, who just wants some family. Although, I think Hap should have told his 'brother' who he was. Also, I am a little suspicious about he Creepand if he's still around, and also the dead prince's servant, who seemed to have felt horrible, except for that he might be faking. "

    " The second in the 'Books of Umber' series where the adventures of Lord Umber and his ward, Happenstance continue, as they try to find the answers as to Happenstance's identity. There are some incredible creatures in the story, which for their function and purpose are brilliant creations of the imagination and although mentioned early on the story, are tied seamlessly into the plot at every available juncture. Very creatively written and I enjoyed this very much. "

    " 3.5 stars. This was really good for a sequel. It had a lot if action and started answering some of the mysteries presented in the first book. I didn't like it as much as the first book because the tone was a lot darker. It was lacking the humor of the first book but was a more mature read. "
