This second book in the series continues the growth of Hiccup Haddock Horrible on his journey to becoming a full fighting member of the Hairy Hooligan tribe. Questions of who is the rightful heir to the chief and if Hiccup can overcome his challenges draw the story along. Alvin (who claims to be a poor and honest farmer) convinces the tribe to go on a dangerous quest, then attempts to overthrow the Hooligans. Leave it to Hiccup and his dragon Toothless (along with best friend Fish Legs) to save the day!
This series is quite enjoyable. I've already requested book three.
