Good observation on the quotation marks - it is true that as long as you are consistent throughout the piece then either single or double usage is correct, but as with a lot of things in English, one usage is more common in US English and another more common in British English. However, I live in Australia where we generally follow the British rules, but judging by most Australian websites/magazines/newspapers etc. we seem to follow the US style on this one.
I picked up my copy of Dragon Keeper last night too and started reading it way to late - I only read the prologue and first two chapters, but now I'm falling asleep at work. Might read a bit more during lunch, but I won't get a chance to sit down and read a good chunk until probably tomorrow night, which is killing me!
