Review of 'Dragons in the Waters' on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

What ages would I recommend it too? – Eight and up.

Length? – A couple of evening's read.

Characters? – Memorable, several characters.

Setting? – Contemporary with a touch of fantasy.

Written approximately? – 1976.

Does the story leave questions in the readers mind? – Ready to read more.

Any issues the author (or a more recent publisher) should cover? No.

Short storyline: Simon meets Poly and Charles on a boat to deliver a painting to a foreign country. He doesn't know the danger he is caught up in. In the end, he makes serious decisions about his future.

Notes for the reader: Is a bit repetitive in places. Could likely cut a few thousand words and not lose any of the story.
