About This Book

David Rain was lost in the Arctic for five years. Now, his daughter, Alexa — the only one with the power to save him — has brought him home, but a lot more than just David have come back to Wayward Crescent: dragons have finally returned to Earth as well...

Now, David, Lucy, Zanna, Liza, and the dragons of Wayard Crescent must face a more terrifying evil as they fight to restore balnce to this world.

Chris d'Lacey weaves another fiery and magical tale for readers in the fifth book of the New York Times bestelling Last Dragon Chronicles.

"D'Lacey's characters are realistic and engaging... A page turner." — The Horn Book, for The Fire Within

"The story, with its involving and thought-provoking plot full of clever little dragons, mystical polar bears, and spiritual and ecological aspects, will appeal to many fantasy lovers." — School Library Journal
