Product Description

Ingram

"Kaeldra has always been set apart from her foster family by her foreign birth and her green eyes, which are the eyes of dragon sayers, according to a myth--a myth that turns real when a dragon gives birth in the mountains and Kaeldra visits her. . . . After the mother dragon is killed by villagers, Kaeldra is left with three orphan 'draclings'."--Kirkus Reviews. --This text refers to the Paperback edition.

5.0 out of 5 stars Enter the Dragon's Lair, Feb 20 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: Dragon's Milk (Paperback)
If you're looking for a book with fantasy and plenty of adventure, the Dragon Chronicles is the series for you. In this first book, Kaeldra, a Kragish girl living as an outsider with some Elythians, struggles to fit in. The strange thing about Kaeldra besides her having straw-colored hair, unlike the Elythians' sleek raven color, and being abnormally tall, is that she has green eyes. According to ragish myths, a girl with green eyes is a dragonsayer and can call dragons. Kaeldra fiercely refuses to believe it, but when her youngest half-sister, Lyf, gets sick with vermillion fever, she must face the truth. She must go in the dragon's lair and get its milk. And so following in the footsteps of her great-grandmother, Kara, who could communicate with dragons (see Flight of the Dragon Kyn), Kaeldra journeys to the great dragon Fiora's den and takes care of her three draclings, later called Pyro, Ember, and Synge. Her fate is entwined with theirs when Fiora is suddenly slain and she is on an adventure of a lifetime to bring the draclings to Landerath. Along with the three specially characterized draclings, she finds out that she does really belong. You MUST MUST read this book!

This review is from: Dragon's Milk (Paperback)
I was very surprised at how good this book had turned out to be, so fabulous I intend on reading it over and over again till I have memorized every page.

I highly recommend this book, it is full of adventure and astonishment. You will be unable to put this book down once you have picked it up. This book is truly a piece of art.
