The Last Dragonslayer

By Jasper Fforde

Book Overview

In the good old days, magic was indispensable. But now magic is fading: Drain cleaner is cheaper than a spell, and magic carpets are used for pizza delivery. Fifteen-year-old Jennifer Strange runs Kazam, an employment agency for magicians--but it's hard to stay in business when magic is drying up. And then the visions start, predicting the death of the world's last dragon at the hands of an unnamed Dragonslayer. If the visions are true, everything will change for Kazam--and for Jennifer.

Customer Reviews

A delightful read!

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I am currently desperately searching to see if there is a sequel. I found the characters to be multi-layered and very human and the tongue-in-cheek was delightfuI.
