Of Dragon Warrens and Other Traps (Taryn's Journey Book 2) by Shannon McGee.
I reviewed the first book in this series, Of Gryphons and Other Monsters, in my last post. I loved it to pieces. This one was less good, but still enjoyable... up until the end.
The story didn't end on a cliffhanger -- worse. It ended right in the middle of a scene. It's as if the author had been writing the last three books' worth of story, and just split it to three equal parts wherever that split fell.
While this book had a number of issues (it was a lot less well edited than the first one, and I didn't believe the last 10% or so of the plot), I still would have recommended it if not for that ending. I hate that kind of thing enough that I don't think I'll read the third book when it comes out.
