While the Dragon’s Away by Joynell Schultz is an amazing story that I have had the pleasure to read. This is book number two in this amazing series and I am so in love with this series already and can not wait for the next book to come out. I highly recommend this story to everyone who loves readng about dragons, fantasy and paranoral romances in their stories.

I’m really enjoying this series, and book 2 builds on the things in book 1. I’m dying to read book 3, and I have suspicions as to what may be, but we won’t go there. We’ll just enjoy the ride because it is like a roller coaster.

While The Dragons Away by Joynell Schultz is the second book in The Quarter Witch Chronicles. In this book, Ruby and her otherworld boyfriend Ty are continuing on in their relationship as normal day to day problems arise which include dragons, sprites, jackalopes, brownies, and witches from Ty’s realm. All of this and a full load of college classes continue to intrude into Ruby’s ability to figure out how to close a magical rip between worlds. This book was so much fun to read. It has just the right amounts of adventure and romance with a huge helping of magic to make the story even more fun. While The Dragons Away is a magical read!

Fun, flirty and magical! I’ve fallen in love with this series and I can’t say enough about it! I mean, fairies, brownies, sprites, poisonous moths, dragons, and a toad with burning spit…how great is that?! Throw in a witch that’s trying to get anything and everything magical back into the other realm and you’ve got a great story!

Roommate issues, which start the novella, are the least of Ruby and Ty’s problems in this book. Ruby doesn’t only have to balance her human concerns but also magical ones. Secrets are revealed as Book 2 delves deeper into the world acknowledged in Book 1—and these will have an impact on Ruby and Ty’s future. This book asks questions that I’m looking forward to future ones answering, particularly about the magical realm that Ty is a part of (and Ruby is to a certain degree). Ruby seems more grown up in this book, and her relationship with Ty continues to evolve. Magic, when used, appears to have consequences that can’t always be foreseen.

As I’ve come to expect from Ms. Schultz’s work, the world of this book is fully imagined and well described, yet she doesn’t overburden the narrative with too much at once. At this point, we’re only getting glimpses of the full extent what magic means and the mostly unseen magical realm, but it is enough to tantalize and make you wonder about the full extent of it all. I, for one, am looking forward to the next installment of the series.

Ruby, Sonja, and Ty were looking for another roommate to help share expenses. Not being from Earth, Ty didn’t have papers he needed to get a job to help financially, but he was still trying. Maxwell Smith arrived to see if the apartment and his contribution would help with rent, but he was not what Ruby expected. Instead of another college student, he was an elderly man and had a tiny little dog that apparently could see the invisible dragon, Luke! Poochy barked constantly until Ty quietly put Luke in the bedroom and shut the door! Poochy followed into the room that Maxwell would be renting, left a puddle on the wood floor, then ran back out to bark and scratch energetically on Ruby’s door where Luke was hidden. In only a few minutes, the dog had begun to destroy the house! But bills were piling up and Ruby needed the money. Sonja pointed out they could not even study with the noise the dog constantly made.

The news reported a dragon sighting, and Ty was ready to hunt it down. Then Ruby saw a little man, a brownie, hiding in the bushes near the house. There had been a tear between our world and Ty’s magical world, but Liam was supposed to have sealed it. So why are they seeing these creatures on our side of the tear?

Summer Thomson was the next candidate for roommate. She was shy, quiet, and would spend most of her time in her room. Perfect! But when the brownie exploded a cake mix in the kitchen and Luke jumped up and down on the bed upstairs making a thumping noise in a supposedly empty room, Summer nervously ran for the door.

When Ty and Ruby trapped the brownie, she figured they had to open the tear so that they could send the brownie and the dragon, when they caught it, through to Ty’s world. The tear had not been sealed. They returned the brownie to its world and captured the dragon. But when they got back to the tear, it had ripped open even wider! And now a troublesome witch more powerful than Ruby has tracked her down and decided she — and her dragon, Luke – should be over on the other side! Now what will she do? How can she fight back?

I just love the books in this series! There is always something happening, and the reader never knows how things will turn out! Each act of magic seems to have a price of some sort, so it opens up even more trouble! But the trio of a fire-breathing pet dragon, a dragon hunting boyfriend from the other world, and a quarter-witch never give up! Grab your copy and see what kind of adventure the friends are dealing with this time!

This is the second book in the Quarter Witch Chronicles and it is just as good as the first book (which I loved). Ruby has a lot on her plate. She is trying to figure out her newly discovered witch abilities, she’s attending college, her unpaid bills are piling up, all while trying to keep magical creatures in the realm where they belong. Fortunately, she is not alone. Her boyfriend Ty and her friend Luke, who just happens to be a dragon are there to help. I can’t wait to see what happens next!

Hermione was a supporting character in the Harry Potter books, but she really deserved her own series – such a feisty independent soft-hearted girl. I did not really notice the similarities between Ruby and Hermione until I read this book and thought about it. All that effort to get ahead academically, to deal with roommates (or friends) – then you throw in the magic (and boyfriends!)!! At least, Hermione did not have to hide things from a muggle roomie!!

The Quarter Witch Chronicles:
While the Dragon’s Away #2 –This story picks up about six months after Ruby discovers she’s a witch. She has a lot on her plate and now she needs sideboards to contain everything. There’s a powerful hunter from Ty’s realm and it’s about to hit the fan.

The storylines are engaging and intriguing. I like the new character, although she’s very dangerous for Ruby and company, you’ve got to admire her. Add to this mix, finals. Yep, what a couple of wonky weeks can do to a girl. There are secrets that come out in the wash, too, which I’ll keep to myself, they’re secrets! Good imagination and descriptions keep the reader immersed and then too quickly, the last page is read. Squawk!

There’s an overview, which I appreciate knowing about a book before I read it. I contacted the author to review her books and received this book through Booksprout. 5*

Dragons are a Girl’s Best Friend #1 – One of my favorite authors regardless of what she writes. I appreciated the humorous overview since I never know what most stories are about and I don’t have the time to look them up. The last dragon I cared about was Puff and I left him behind with my childhood, but this dragon is so sweet and intriguing, well.

The humor throughout this story made even the sad parts better. Yes, the first chapter is full of sadness and then the beginning of the second kicks her teeth down her throat. But then we met Liam and things improve drastically. Of course, there’s Luke the Dragon to help make the storylines interesting and intriguing. Although I don’t care for this age group, I liked the characters and their most of their dialog. Ruby’s constant state of panic and her bad thoughts were a little too much at times, but she’s eighteen and learning.

The author’s vivid imagination and descriptions always keep me entertained and there in the story and this story is no different. I’m glad the next two books come out in June; so far, this has been an interesting and fun read. I contacted the author to review her books and received this book through Booksprout. 4*
