Product Information

I do like the sound of this. Do you think it’s one I’d enjoy? What sort of age would you say it’s aimed at? This would be perfect for 9+. I don’t think I’ve ever read a book that gave me such a sense of anticipation – the twists are great! There is a major cliffhanger ending which I think some people may find difficult to accept but I liked it – really sets up the next book which I’ll definitely be getting. It’s what I call a classic fantasy adventure – heroes, quest, good-v-evil. I loved that the dragons have such wonderful personalities. We got inspiration for our dragons from both Chinese folklore as well as Western and European folklore, as we wanted to merge the two for our own unique dragons.

On a gloomy October afternoon, standing amongst statues of Vietnamese heroic figures and goddesses, Ngo questioned whether his property would ever see another visitor again. It has been closed to the public for the past two years and county officials are dragging their feet. Thank you! We love them too! All the characters probably have some elements of ourselves and people we know in them. Charlotte is bossy like Katie. Billy is inquisitive and curious like Kevin. Dylan O'Donnell, who is from Galway in Ireland, was slightly inspired by our friend Catherine Doyle, who is also from Galway - not only his Irish heritage, but his excellent sense of humor. And Ling-Fei's love of nature and the natural world is something we both have.I’ll look into this,” Lee told San José Spotlight. “But generally I expect the county to allow property owners one chance or two chances to fix the issues before shutting down a place.” Statues of Vietnamese heroic figures at the Dragon Mountain.
