Madeleine L'Engle is a wonderful storyteller! Even if this is a tween fiction book, I found it an incredibly enjoyable read. I re-read the Wrinkle in Time series with my BF some time ago and had a yen for more. The Arm of the Starfish did the trick. Don't let the cheesey cover fool you, it's well written and with some sophisticated plot twists and imagery better than any Dan Brown novel.

Madeline L'Engle was a woman ahead of her time and tremendously talented. "Dragons in the Waters" is a page-turner that adults and teens (or tweens) will love. Her characters are alive and full of wisdom. It's at once a cautionary tale, a mystery and a charming coming of age story with heavy brush strokes of adventure and history. What a treat!
