Book Description

Shadow of the Dragon May 21, 2009
One day, a young girl astride a twin-tailed dragon will destroy the monarchy and change the world for ever ...Kira and Elspeth have already broken FIRST LAW many times over. Now outlawed and running for their lives they are determined to stand amongst the men and fight the unjust FIRST LAW that binds the kingdom. But cruel Lord Dorcon still stands in their way and the heat of his chase is stronger than ever. Strong and determined, Kira has done all that she can to protect and shield her younger sister. But now it's time for Elspeth to grow up. When Paradon's muddled magic sends them travelling through time to different eras, new challenges and terrifying threats await the separated sisters. Especially to Elspeth, left all alone to navigate a past world long before the rule of King Ardon and FIRST LAW. And all the while in a strange, alien world of the future, Kira must find a way to get back to Elspeth and reunite her family once again. A prophecy to fulfil. A cruel monarchy to upend. The battle continues ...


Editorial Reviews

Review

'Great characters, good comedy, action, adventure and dragons. What more could a young fantasy fan ask for?' -- The Bookbag 'an exciting, fast-paced adventure filled with strong female protagonists.' -- School Librarian

About the Author

Kate O'Hearn was raised in the heart of New York City. Throughout her life, she has always had an active and vivid imagination. As a child walking down 5th Avenue, she would envision herself soaring among the city's canyons on the back of a wild dragon. While in Florida, looking over the sea, she could imagine living amongst the whales and beaching in the heavy swells. At night, a star studded sky was yet another playground. These dreams and ideas never faded. Instead they grew until they spilled over into the books she loves to write.

4.0 out of 5 stars Easy to get into, fun and exciting, March 20, 2010
This review is from: Elspeth (Shadow of the Dragon) (Bk. 2) (Paperback)
This is the second book in the Shadow of the Dragon series. I have not read the first book, but after reading the second book I will be keeping my eyes open for the first book, Shadow of the Dragon (Book One Kira).

Here's the breakdown:

Hook/Setting: The opening picks up where the first book left off and I think that the setting is described very well, I can picture the various scenes in my head without trouble.

Character(s): This story focus on Kira's youngest sister, Elspeth. I like Elspeth, she is a kind girl who wants things to be fair and just. She loves animals and has a unique controlling ability over them and they try to rescue her when she is in trouble. There is a variety of characters new and old in this story that bring the story along nicely.

Events/Plots: The plot is original and interesting. There is suspense and mystery throughout the story and secrets are revealed. This book is easy to get into.

Reader Excitability/Overall Presentation: I would recommend this book to those who have read the first book and to people who enjoy stories with dragons, animals, and people who never lose hope.

2.0 out of 5 stars Huh?! [spoiler alert], August 22, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Elspeth (Shadow of the Dragon) (Bk. 2) (Paperback)
This book got rather confusing for me. In the end [spoiler alert] Elspeth was the one that would save her older sister, who is now the younger sister? What? Not only was I confused, but I didn't really like how the book ended so fast. There should have been at least one more book, and although the book was cheap, I don't think I got all that I paid for from the book.
