"Many of my students and I enjoyed this book! The prophecy, the dragon, the girls as warriors, and the destruction of their home in the first chapter created compelling reading. In addition, it was easy to follow (some fantasy books are not)!" — Debbie (5 out of 5 stars)

" One of the better girl-kicks-butt books that I have read. Who can resist a book about a 12 year old female outlaw/heroine, with dragons, dragon knights and an evil monarchy? This is one of my favorite fantasy books to date. "
" Great start to a new fantasy series. Strong characters torn apart from their family, evil king who hates girls, dragons - good and deadly - this series has great promise and the kids are going to love it. "
" Loved it! Can't wait for book 2. "
" it was good. even though the main characters were very young. the story was really captivating. "
" It was badly written but a good story "
" This book was good, the only thing wrong with it is the lack of detail. Dragons are awesome, and she could've told us more what it was like to fly on one, etc! "
" Finished about 10 chapters. Derivative and mediocre. Audiobook especially not recommended. "
" Loved this book, can't wait to read the rest of the series. It is a preteen read though. "
" Great book with a female heroine. Excellent read for older children and adults! "
" intended for older elementary readers, safe for younger readers who read a t higher grade level. I read it straight through and am waiting to get book 2 (Elpeth). "
" The story was great. The idea, the plot, the places, the people were all great. But the storytelling was that of a new author, and that made it less enjoyable than it could've been, unfortunately. "
" I was surprised to discover I LOVED this book! Can't wait for the second one! "
" I think it was better than her other books (the pegasus series) "
" Loved this and so did my kids! "
" Great book one of the best ive ever read love the bit when she gets her own dragon. Lord dorcon is so evil and lasser commons sounded horrible. Really recommend it! "
" I liked the story but Kira annoyed me I don't know why she just did. I think it was at the beginning when she was going to be married off and she refused to when that was what happened to every girl and she seemed to think she should be different. other than that it was a good story. "
" Great light read with a spunky girl hero. "
