Get ready for dragons, robots, and an even more dangerous quest in this hilarious, unputdownable sequel to The Adventurer's Guide to Successful Escapes.

Anne, Penelope, and Hiro are nominated for Best Illegal Quest That Nearly Destroyed the Entire World at the annual Quest Academy Awards, but they barely get to enjoy it before a strange boy tricks Anne into activating a new quest. Her charge: kill the dragon queen. The problem is, Anne doesn't want to kill any dragons. But the mysterious boy does, even if it means igniting a devastating war between people and dragons. The only chance Anne and the others have to stop it is to get to the queen first. Along the way, they'll have to navigate ancient mines, avoid erupting volcanoes, outsmart robots, and survive the dragon trials. And, of course, get a passing grade on their quest. Packed with action, humor, and endless heart, this is a truly irresistible middle grade fantasy tale.

Review

Praise for The Adventurer's Guide to Dragons (and Why They Keep Biting Me):




"Fans of the first will not be disappointed with this humorous sequel."―Kirkus Reviews

"An entertaining, swashbuckling high adventure with dragons, huge insects, and giant robots."
―School Library Journal

Praise for The Adventurer's Guide to Successful Escapes:

"A highly distinctive, smart take on the fantasy novel... readers will find a humorous tale of adventure, friendship, and courage."
―Kirkus Reviews

"This fast-paced adventure deals with deep themes... the first in a fantasy adventure series with a unique crew of characters, this will tickle funny bones and leave readers awaiting the next installment."
―School Library Journal

"Funny and fresh."
―Booklist

Praise for The Adventurer's Guide to Treasure (and How to Steal It):



"This conclusion to Wade Albert White's delightfully inventive trilogy is witty, wise, and wonderful. As with the previous installments, this book offers readers a smart, sophisticated story that is filled with nonstop action and adventure, surprises at nearly every turn, and generous helpings of humour and heart...The resulting fantasy adventure flirts with familiar tropes while creating something that is utterly original, fresh and fun."―Atlantic Books Today

This second addition to The Adventurer's Guide series keeps the action flowing as our heroes are roped into a second quest. A mix or humour, and action, this series is good for young, 7 and up, readers of fantasy.

5.0 out of 5 stars SO. MUCH. FUN.
Reviewed in the United States on September 5, 2017
Despite a busy schedule, I plowed through this book! (That is, when I could smuggle it from the thieving hands of my 13-year-old.) Wade Albert White is SO FUNNY! This book is full of zany adventures and the kind of utter silliness that makes my heart happy.

Second books in a series can be difficult to pull off, but The Adventurer's Guide to Dragons is every bit as fun (funny/hilarious/belly-laugh-inducing) and well-written as the first. In this installment, Anne (Anvil), Penelope, and Hiro are once again thrust on a quest--a dangerous and highly illegal one. They must find a way to kill the Queen Dragon while keeping her safe.

The world-building shines. The mysteries deepen. The characters feel like friends. This is the perfect kind of book to get lost in while curled up under a blanket.

My only complaint is that it ends. Can't wait for the next book!

Wade Albert White's books inspired my children to read everything they can get their hands on. We love his books. We've read this and the first book in the series so much that I had to order new copies. They are fun to read and full of adventure. I preordered the Adventurer's Guide to Treasure (and how to steal it). We can't wait to go on another adventure. And, if you are a grandparent looking for something to read aloud, this series is excellent. The grandkids won't want you to stop reading.

This sequel is even more fun than the first book in the series! Adventure with a hint of the epic in Harry Potter and strange catch-you-of-guard humour that reminds me of Douglas Adams, this book was fantastic and all my kids loved it! Highly recommend it.
