Where it came from
Published in 1990, Dealing with Dragons serves as the inaugural volume of the Enchanted Forest Chronicles. Patricia C. Wrede conceived the series as a subversion of traditional fairy tale tropes, focusing on a princess named Cimorene who rejects the conventional roles of damsel in distress in favor of becoming a dragon's princess. The narrative was written during a period of rising interest in feminist revisions of classic fantasy literature.
The book’s design and aesthetic focus on a whimsical, character-driven tone that appealed to middle-grade readers. Wrede collaborated with illustrator Trina Schart Hyman for the original cover art, which helped establish the lighthearted and slightly irreverent identity of the series. Upon its release, the book was well-received for its witty dialogue and strong protagonist, eventually securing its status as a staple of nineties fantasy literature.
