Trade Review“This highly readable middle grade fantasy adventure wins with its likable heroine and ecological angle.” — School Library Journal “Fawcett’s story is full of original details that add depth… But it is the richly nuanced primary and secondary characters, as well as the evenhanded inclusion of females as intelligent scientists, that give the story its richness… Fresh and original.” — Kirkus Reviews “Stunning descriptions and well-rounded characters are woven into a story that hums with excitement and adventure.” — ALA Booklist “A n interesting twist on the typical dragon novel….
