The series takes place in a fictional world, where Vikings and dragons coexist in the same universe. The series is focused around a young man named Hiccup, who lives with a tribe of other Vikings and the adventures that he has as he works his way into becoming a Hero of the Viking Land. There are 12 novels that have been released for Crowell, between 2003 and 2015, where the series concluded with the final addition. The book series has inspired many spin-offs, including two feature animation films that are loosely based on the novels and a child’s TV series. The entire book series is geared towards young children but it still has a very strong charm that seems to appeal to readers of all ages, similar to the way that a Harry Potter or Inheritance Book Series might appeal to us. The writing of the series is very mature but still manages to take us deep into this completely magical and fantastic world, where we are swept away by the mystery and heroism of the characters and their adventures. Although it never explicitly mentions it, it appears that the series takes place somewhere in early Scandinavia, when Viking still were an active people. The added element of the dragons serves to bring some fantasy to the history that we’re acquainted it and overall only makes the reading experience even more enthralling, as we imagine that there was once a time that giant, fire-breathing reptilian creatures once walked the ground we do today. Part of the charm that this series brings is with its’ characters, especially with its protagonist Hiccup. The reader’s curiosity and interest with this character immediately start when you read his name for the first time. The interesting choice in name is only the first exposure to the rest of Hiccup’s oddities as you realize that he is not a typical Viking warrior. He has a very small and tiny stature, that makes him to be perceived as being weak, and his body structure contrasts the rest of his tribe, who are all large and bulky individuals. Hiccup is also remarkably intelligent, another trait that makes him stand out, and he shows that he believes in using his brain over the brawn of others to solve the problems that the tribes are facing. When we are first introduced to him, Hiccup lacks any confidence and it almost evokes a sense of sympathy within the reader. Hiccup is then thrust into the position of being a leader, and he takes on this character dynamic of being the reluctant hero. While he is aware that he is ill prepared to succeed at the tasks that are in front of him, he knows that it is what he must do because it’s the right thing to do. He has a strong sense of duty and loyalty, which we only see increase as the series progresses. The story almost resembles a “coming of age” story where Hiccup slowly discovers himself and who is meant to be. We see the final culmination of his character in the last book and we see that he has grown from the unsure boy to a confident leader of all Crowell also has to be applauded for the intense level of detail and creativity that is used to create the fantastical world that the series takes place in. Let’s first start off with the dragons. In traditional context, dragons are used to depict these scary, scaly creatures that are affiliated with an antagonist character or are usually the antagonist character themselves. Crowell, however, does not follow this usual pattern but instead adds a brush of color, humor, and personality to the dragons in her story. Each one is unique no two dragons are exactly the same. Each dragon has a personality and color that is unique to him or her alone. They are playful, joyous, sometimes moody, and will argue with each other. They’re not exactly pets. They’re more likely a whole species that just seems to co-exist and work with the Vikings on their daily routine. The protagonist Hiccup has a companion dragon, named Toothless note the similarity in oddity of name and you see the relationship between the two change and grow and mature throughout the whole series. Toothless is a dragon that is lame and struggles with tasks that other dragons find simple to perform. You see Hiccup help Toothless very early on in the relationship and that starts a passionate friendship that last throughout the entire series and completely emotionally invests the reader in the series. It appears that the dragons are a reflection of the Vikings that they are paired with and both species maintain a symbiotic relationship with each other as one grows, so does the other. Books are the way that we can travel the world and learn new perspectives without ever having to leave the comfort of our own homes. The “How To Train Your Dragon” book series does exactly that it transports you to a faraway fictional land that could have been true for all we know and tells you the story of a bunch of Viking and their dragons and the adventures that they encounter in long ago Scandinavia. Although the context of the series sounds almost childish, this book series will appeal to readers of all ages. This is a story that at first appearance seems to be all magical and fantastic but at its core presents characters who are confused and unsure about themselves and have insecurities and have to make tough choices about their lives. Sounds familiar? You will be invested in the endeavors of all the characters and you will ache to know what happens to each one of them in each succeeding novel. It is different from the movies it is better than the movies. It is a book that you will laugh and cry with and at the end of it all, you too will wish you lived during a time when dragons roamed the Earth.

Written by William Davies, Peter Tolan, Sanders and DeBlois. Based on the book by Cressida Cowell. Running time 98 minutes. Rated PG for sequences of intense action, some scary images and brief mild language.Some movies seem born to inspire video games. All they lack is controllers and a scoring system. "How to Train Your Dragon" plays more like a game born to inspire a movie. It devotes a great deal of time to aerial battles between tamed dragons and evil ones, and not much to character or story development. But it's bright, good-looking and has high energy. Kids above the easily scared age will probably like the movie the younger they are. This is another action animation with an improbable young hero, based on a series of popular children's books. Remember when the heroes in this genre were teenagers? Now it's usually some kid who is 10 at the most, revealing himself as stronger, wiser and braver than older people, and a quick learner when it comes to discovering or mastering a new form of warfare. We are born knowing how to command dragons and spaceships and down we forget as up we hero is Hiccup Horrendous Haddock III the voice of Jay Baruchel, a young Viking who lives in Berk, a mountainside village surrounded by the crags and aeries where hostile dragons live. Hiccup tells us that his village is very old, but all of the houses are new. An alarming omen. Led by his father Stoick Gerard Butler and the dragon master Cobber Craig Ferguson, the villagers have been in combat with the dragons since time immemorial. It would seem to be an unequal struggle; the dragons are enormous and breathe fire, and the Vikings, while muscular, have only clubs, swords and spears. They may however be smarter than the dragons, although you wouldn't know that just by listening to seems to be channeling his character from "300," beefed up by many a hearty Viking feast. He joins Ferguson and others in speaking English with a muscular Scottish accent, since as we all know that English was widely used among the Vikings. In appearance, the Vikings seem victims of a testosterone outbreak causing enormous sprouty growths of hair. Even the hair from their nostrils might knit up into a nice little sock. Oh, how I tried not to, but as I watched these brawlers saddled up on great flying lizards, I kept thinking, "Asterix meets Avatar."The plot Young Hiccup is ordered to stay inside during a dragon attack. But the plucky lad seizes a cannon, blasts away at the enemy and apparently wings one. Venturing into the forest to track his prey, he finds a wounded little dragon about his age, already chained up. He releases it, they bond, and he discovers that dragons can be perfectly nice. With his new friend Toothless, he returns to the village, and an alliance is formed with good dragons against the bad dragons, who are snarly holdouts and grotesquely ugly. One evil beast is covered all over with giant warlike knobs, and has six eyes, three on either side, like a classic Buick. In one scene, a Viking hammers on an eyeball with his club. Not very appetizing. The battle ends as all battles must, with the bad guys routed and the youngest hero saving the day. The aerial battle scenes are storyboarded like a World War I dogfight, with swoops, climbs and narrowly missed collisions with craggy peaks and other dragons. For my taste, these went on way too long, but then I must teach myself that I do not have a 6-year-old's The movie is being shown in both 3-D and 2-D. The 3-D adds nothing but the opportunity to pay more to see a distracting and unnecessary additional dimension. Paramount has threatened theaters that if they don't clear screens for "Dragon" despite the current glut of 3-D films, the studio won't let them show it in 2-D. This displays real confidence in 3-D.
