I learned of the histories of Dragonia, along with Elena, and fell in love with all the beautiful teenage boys with the same unadulterated teenage hormones she felt.
I was able to relate to and live through our heroine as she built relationships in this new, but somewhat familiar, world that she was thrown in to. Instead of bringing me in to an unbelievable fantasy world, the author took me in to a world quite similar to our own, minus dragons. I was brought to believe that dragons were real, and introduced to Dragonia. I was hit with intrigue, peril, and heartache. This is the beginning of a promising, “edge of your seat” series about dragons, magic, danger, love, loss, and coming of age.Īs the very first chapter unfolded, I was on the edge of my seat, wanting to know what happens to our main character, Elena. The author captures the mannerisms and characteristics of a sixteen-year-old girl beautifully, while not allowing the story to take on a juvenile tone. The ideas in the story are ingenious and unique. Now it’s time for Elena to believe – in herself.Firebolt is like a breath of fresh air. Teenage girls don’t believe in fairy tales.
And the only way Elena’s going to graduate is on the back of a dragon of her own. The cutest guy around may be an evil dragon, a Prince wants Elena’s heart, and a long dead sorcerer may be waking up to kill her. Now Elena’s in a new world, and a new school. Until the night a fairy tale killed her father. Teenage girls don’t believe in fairy tales, and sixteen-year old Elena Watkins was no different. LOVE IT! this book was awesome! I so love dragon stories. This book is the BEST dragon book I’ve ever read! (After Eragon) THE BEST! I COULDN’T STAND THE AWESOMENESS! Goodreads Reviewerĭragons? Yes, please! But “Firebolt”, the first book in a riveting new YA fantasy series, gives us so much more than ‘just’ dragons. With almost 1000 5-star reviews on Goodreads, find out why Firebolt is rated the next best read.
