I almost never reread a book. Not because there is nothing worth rereading, but because I have so many books that I haven't read yet. Way back when, I could remember the plot of every book and short story that I had read, so it really came as a shock to me how little of the story I remembered from having read it. I've read four more of the Dragon books in the last year, and there was a lot of "remember that Loathy tower business."

Jim and Angie are contemporary academics at a small midwest college named Riveroak. They are barely making ends meet. Angie as a second job is working for some guy in the physics department, working on out of body experiences. Angie is the subject of one of these and gets transported back to the 14th century England. Jim tired of waiting for Angie walks in just as she disappeared, he puts himself in the same spot, but with lower power and only his mind travels back, and into the dragon Gorbash.

Angie gets kidnapped and taken to the Loathly tower. Jim in the body of Gorbash goes to meet the magician Carolinus. Carolinus tells Jim where Angie is, and informs him that he needs to find companions. Jim finds his companions, Sir Brian, Aragh (the English Wolf), Dafydd ap Hywell and even the Smrgol and Secoh. At the final (of this book) battle each of the companions has their own foe and must face, and each comes through heroically.

I knew all of this, and more, and still the rereading was good. Definitely a book and a series that is well worth reading.
