This is the first book from this author that i have read, and the author did a great job of connecting the characters and the previous story lines together, so i was able to follow with ease, as a new reader.

The Dragon Storm: ABRACADABRA by Anthony DiPaolo is the second book in The Dragon Storm series. It is shorter in pages, as it is the first part. Still, nevertheless, the strings that pull the reader’s attention are there from the first pages as Alexander Storm witnesses a magic representation that is not all smoke and wires, as the creatures summoned are too lively for mere illusions and the words spoken are more powerful than simple words. In this universe created by DiPaolo, where supernatural, demons, myths, and legends entangle, the adventure begins as Alexander and his friends find themselves in another “battle against the evil” type of situation. What I liked about this book, besides the well-written and fast-paced story, is that, with each illustration added along the way, the author managed to create a more vivid and authentic type of world in this piece of work. Also, I like it when authors offer different perspectives on the story.… (meer)

So, I just finished Anthony DiPaolo's "The Dragon Storm: Abracadabra," and let me tell you, it's like riding a dragon through a storm of emotions and ancient mysteries. Imagine Indiana Jones but with more dragons and less fear of snakes.
First off, the characters. We have Alexander Storm, who's as relentless as a cat chasing a laser pointer, and Asar, his teammate, who’s got the brains but sometimes seems as oblivious as a dog in a squirrel park. Their dynamic is the stuff of legends, or at least a really good buddy movie.
The plot is like a rollercoaster designed by a history buff with a penchant for supernatural thrills. It whisks you from the ruins of Solomon to the caves of Qumran, and then, just for kicks, over to the Mediterranean mountains and India. It's like a world tour with a side of impending doom.
DiPaolo's writing style is a mix of detail and action, sort of like if a history book and a comic book had a baby. And the illustrations? They’re the cherry on top. It’s like they knew you’d need a visual aid for this whirlwind adventure.
But let's talk about the cliffhanger ending. It's like waiting for your waiter to bring dessert, but the restaurant is also on fire, and you're not sure if you’ll get your chocolate lava cake or just...lava.
In conclusion, "The Dragon Storm: Abracadabra" is for those who love their archaeology with a side of supernatural, their action with a hint of humor, and their characters as lovable as they are frustrating. It's a wild ride, and I'm strapping in for the next one.… (meer)
