Jennifer Scales Series by MaryJanice Davidson & her husband Anthony

I think this series topped everything I've read of MJD's!

It's only four books (so far.. news from http://www.jenniferscales.com/ says more books are coming soon) but MAN what books they are.

Book One: Jennifer Scales and the Ancient Furance: "Jennifer Scales is a 14 year old girl. Her mom is a doctor and her father is a workaholic who is off on business trips routinely. She thinks she has a 'normal' family and finds out she has no idea what 'normal' means. Her world is shaken up when she learns her fathers (and now her) secret... He is a Weredragon and so is she. With the help of her parents and grandfather she is learning about her inner dragon.. an 'illness' is what is being told to her friends and outsiders.. as she dissappears at the time of the Crescent moon. The moon that makes her change. The plot thickens when her father is kidnapped and the people around her can no longer be trusted.. or can they?"

The following books just get better and better. Book Four Seraph of Sorrow is my favorite out of the series thus far and I really enjoyed how they worked the book into the telling of the story from different characters perspective that still drove on the story without any weird hiccups. GAH! Book Five.. come out NOW! I want to know what happens next!!

Even though this is a YA series (hey sometimes I'm a YA at heart!) I really enjoyed these books. How can you not? Teens alone are entertaining with their mood swings and unique points of view but a Weredragon teen? A whole other set of problems arise! If you can't talk to your friends about such a huge change.. who can you talk to? Can you imagine?


As usual MJD and co-author, her husband Anthony, deliver an excellent, well written book series.

Book One: Jennifer Scales and the Ancient Furance
