Re: Age of Fire series by E.E.Knight
It sure was!
I really enjoyed this series. Of the three main characters, Wistala was my favorite, so, naturally, Dragon Avenger was my favorite book of the series.

Re: How To Train Your Dragon
I was, of course, thinking more of the "flight" part of the mating flight than the actual "mating" part. I assure you, I had no X-rated thoughts in mind.

Re: How To Train Your Dragon
In the case of I, Robot, it was based on an idea suggested by Isaac Asimov. They never claimed that the movie was actually based on the book itself.

Could you imagine seeing Pern in 3D? Imagine what they could do in the thread-fighting and mating flight sequences!
