LoveReading4Kids Says
An exciting adventure story that follows a group of children with superpowers and heart bonds with speaking dragons.
The story is set in two realms, human and dragon, linked by portals and the ability of the children and dragons to communicate through thought. The story is fast paced and exciting and although it is the 4th book in the story, the previous adventures are explained by cleverly using a new character Lola who is told everything that has happened so far.
It is a classic tale of good versus evil and has all the components necessary in a supernatural adventure such as this: - beautiful, magical, and powerful dragons with strength and speed, enchanted swords that cut through rock, loyal, supportive, brave children, and the inevitable baddy! It is all as you imagine the ideal adventure fantasy to be, swooping dragon rides, baddies turned into golden statues and larger than life natural features. It is an adventure combining elements of Harry Potter, the sword and the stone and The Hobbit, with a little bit of Philip Pullman’s Northern Lights thrown in for good measure. It is an exciting tale with all the components of a good story. The fact that it is one of a series, only makes it more appealing.
