The Princess, the Dragon, and the Frog Prince Kindle Edition

by Elisabeth Waters (Author), Mercedes Lackey (Author), Raul S Reyes (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars 42 ratings

This is a collection of connected stories:
* The Birthday Gift, by Elisabeth Waters
* Dragon in Distress, by Mercedes Lackey & Elisabeth Waters
* The Dragon's Horde, by Elisabeth Waters & Raul S. Reyes
* A Prince Among Frogs, by Elisabeth Waters

The story arc started when Princess Rowena's sorceress aunt gave her a fourteenth-birthday gift that could truly be described as enchanting, which impelled Rowena to leave home and take refuge with a dragon. Then things really spiraled out of control, dragging in Tarma and Kethry, a pregnant mercenary (and being carried off by a dragon while suffering from morning sickness is not a fun experience), and a rather clueless prince. And after tangling with Rowena, the prince needed a witch to rescue him.

Older kids will love this but makes a very delightful read for a no effort kind of day. The happy rewrite of Dragons, fogs and Princesses, will charm all ages.

4.0 out of 5 stars good stories, originally published on paper, not electronically
Reviewed in the United States on June 13, 2022
These stories were written and published in books (on paper!) back in the 1990s. The original books are not available electronically, and hard to find in print, thus this ebook offers them. Stories and publications:

* The Birthday Gift, by Elisabeth Waters - Sword and Sorceress IX (1992)
* Dragon in Distress, by Mercedes Lackey & Elisabeth Waters - Sword and Sorceress XII (1995); NOTE also available as a solo ebook on amazon (2010); also in A Dragon and Her Girl (2020)
* The Dragon's Horde, by Elisabeth Waters & Raul S. Reyes - Sword and Sorceress XV (1998)
* A Prince Among Frogs, by Elisabeth Waters - Marion Zimmer Bradley's Fantasy, Winter 1996; also in Magic in Suburbia (2010)

Satisfactory conclusion to this series. Again...very amusing, logical conclusion to the receiving of an unwanted gift. The development and growth of the Princess was well done.

4.0 out of 5 stars enjoyed very much
Reviewed in the United States on May 18, 2012
This is four mini stories, three is from about the Princess, the last one is not.
I had previously read two of the stories in previous book, and had very much enjoyed them.

I love the way this author takes original fairy stories and changes the way I look at them.

Cute...too short! But, I liked how all the stories tied in to each other. It really was a fun little book.

1.0 out of 5 stars WHY Kindle ONLY?
Reviewed in the United States on October 17, 2012
Ok, I have yet to read any of these stories and apparently I will never read them since they seem to be only in KINDLE! I DO NOT DO electronic books. Too much computer time is an issue with me. I LOVE and Greatly enjoy Mercedes Lackey's books ! ! ! For example I just received and devoured the 4th book in her Collegium Cronicles and only the knowledge that such high quality writing as hers takes time is keeping me from wanting the next and whatever follows it as soon as I can possibly get them. Beside, she deserves time for a non-writing real life!

Now I am ****RUDELY TEASED**** by seeing several books or stories here, including this book of shorts, that apparently are not and have never been in "PRINT" on paper for the public. This is not, I REPEAT,,,, NOT,,,, A NICE Thing to do to a lifelong BOOKWORM!
I am sure that for anyone who chooses to avail themselves of the electronic book services, they have their place. I am not one of their numbers.. Why should there not be real paper of these books??????? It's irritating enough to need to go look for out of print and nearly impossible to find books just for a single short by a favorite author but this is just wrong!

Amazon, I came here looking to buy. Apparently there is nothing here for me? Is it time for me to close my Amazon account?

3.0 out of 5 stars Curate's (or, perhaps, dragon's) egg...
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on April 3, 2013
Verified Purchase
An accumulated set of not quite divergent stories centered on the eponymous dragon, who snatches away the Princess Rowena blessed (um) on her fourteenth birthday with the spell that makes a jewel or flower fall from her lips at every word. Just think about what that means in the 'real' world; the thorns hurt, for a start...

It's feminist literature and unashamed about that. And it's funny, in parts.

Do not purchase The Dragon in Distress separately as I did, only to find out that it's part of this set. Or maybe buy that one and leave this set out. It's separate because it's by far the best.

Not sure what I was expecting, but this wasn't it. The concept was good, but seemed hurried and not particulary descriptive.
