Dealing with Dragons. Patricia C. Wrede / 212 pages / Fairy Tales

Princess Cimorene is bored.  She runs away to find excitement and find it she does with the dragons.  She is content to be Kazul's cook  (Kazul is a dragon.)...so content that she absolutely refuses to be rescued by knights on quests to rescue princesses from dragons.  Cimorene is instrumental in thwarting a plot whereby the wizards attempt to fix the face to determine the next dragon king.  This was a delightful audio book with multiple voices.  According to Booklist it is "a decidedly diverting novel with plenty of action and many slightly skewed fairy tale conventions that add to the laugh-out-loud reading pleasure..."
