Are you ready for a feminist Princess? Princess Cimerone hates embroidery and advanced curtseying but her parents won't let her learn anything really interesting like magic, swordsmanship or even cooking. She decides to run away and apply for a job as a Dragon's princess where she can use her intelligence and sense of adventure. Unfortunately, dimwitted princes are falling all over themselves trying to rescue her. Along the way Cimerone cleverly deals with witches, evil wizards, clumsy dragons and air-headed princesses. this book has plenty of action and many slightly skewed fairy-tale conventions, in the spirit of Shrek, that will keep you laughing out loud. Luckily this is only Book 1 of The Enchanted Forest series. Book 2 is Searching for Dragons, Book 3 is Calling on Dragons, and Book 4 is Talking to Dragons.
