Book detectives: Find a fantasy book for my wife

[Schadenfreude]

She read this more than a decade ago; neither of us are big fantasy readers, but she remembers the series is about 5 books long, and contains dragons.

I'm assuming that it was written in the 80~90's, and it was a book that a friend of hers had.

Not much, but give me some suggestions and I suppose I can go from there!

KThxBye😛

first guess anne mccarthy dragonriders of pern. I know women like that series while i found it terrible.

 

[William Gaatjes]

Maybe not the right time of publishing. (What i posted that is.)

 

[FelixDeCat]

Nancy Drew / Hardy boys.

 

[ThePresence]

Magician: Apprentice
by Raymond E. Feist

 

[Macamus Prime]

She should give scuba diving a shot. Or, knife throwing. Either or; they are pretty similar.

the Death Gate Cycle? First book came out in 1990 and was called Dragon Wing. Wasnt focused on dragons, but she may remember it that way because of the title.

This

 

[MotF Bane]

Something from Dragonlance?

Something from Dragonlance?

Yeah that would be my second guess.

You've got to be kidding. A fantasy series with dragons in it? Maybe I can also figure out what science fiction series with aliens in it that she read. We need a little more to go on - at least some vague plot points, character descriptions, something.

 

[Newbian]

We need pictures of her while wearing a chain mail bikini to find your answer.

 

[Drako]

Do these books contain guys with swords?

 

[M0oG0oGaiPan]

did it involve an "Angry Dragon"?

Hey man, that's all I got from her; if I had more I'd be able to find it myself - I'm thinking that there can't be that many fantasy series that lasts 5 books?

My first thought was the Pern books although I believe there are more than 20 of those.

 

[KidNiki1]

is this the same as a white dragon?

anyway, OP, this may help jar her memory as it has book covers which sometimes helps me when i cant remember.

I think there were four books in Jane Yolen's Pit Dragon Chronicles. (Dragon's Blood, Heart's Blood, A Sending of Dragons, and Dragon's Heart)

Early 80's young adult. (But pretty advanced themes)

 

[IAteYourMother]

Just read Game of Thrones.

What-ever; I'm hedging my bets on the fact that:

- It is a series, but it's short (5 books)
- It was made in the 80~90's
- It contains dragons

It's not really much to go on I agree, but stop being assmonkeys and give me some suggestions/possibilities here people!

kthxbye 😛
