One Good Knight (Five Hundred Kingdoms, #2)
Mercedes Lackey
Return to the Five Hundred Kingdoms, where a damsel can rescue herself, thank you… Princess Andromeda knows that any problem can be solved with a bit of research. So when a dragon storms the kingdom of Acadia, she decides it’s time to hit the books. Despite all her research, the only acceptable answer she can find is sacrificing a fair maiden—for Acadia is governed by “Tradition,” a rule that cannot so easily be sundered. Then she is picked as the sacrifice and must take matters into her own hands. With the help of her champion, Sir George, Andromeda sets out in search of the dragon’s lair, wanting nothing more than to change her fate. But to do so will take the strongest of wills, knowledge, quick wits and a refusal to give up, no matter what happens along the way… Previously Published.

It's only the second in the series but after reading the first I was disappointed at how slowly One Good Knight seemed to move. Typically I can read a book in a day or so but this took several just because I wasn't excited to read it and wasn't sure I cared what happened next. I've heard great things about the 500 Kingdoms series as a whole, and I'm a sucker for a fairy tale retelling, so I'll continue with the series. The pace did pick up towards the end and I will definitely continue reading the series. It wasn't a horrible book, just okay, which was disappointing when I was expecting something similar to the magic of The Fairy Godmother.
