What The Dragonet Prophecy is about
Five young dragons have been raised in hiding beneath a mountain in the Claws of the Clouds range. Clay, Sunny, Glory, Tsunami, and Starflight have been told they are the answer to a prophecy: they are meant to end a war fought by three rival queens named Blister, Blaze, and Burn. Whether they want that role, or are ready for it, is another matter.
A meeting with Queen Scarlet is especially tense. The story moves quickly and leans on friendship, courage, and the question of whether destiny can be chosen or only accepted. It is a lively start to a fantasy series, aimed at younger readers who enjoy dragons and adventure.
