Treachery from the sands of Egypt to the plains of Antarctica.
Following on from the harrowing events of ‘A Threat From The Past’ (Book 1), a new found friendship with the dragon king is forged. Soon though, young and old alike are unwittingly drawn into a deadly plot, when a straight forward meeting with the monarch sees them helping an injured dragon agent, straight back from his mission in Antarctica with news of a devastating encounter with another ancient race.
Blackmail, intrigue, forbidden love interests, a near fatal mantra gone wrong, a highly charged rugby match in which Tank takes a beating, combined with enough laminium ball action to please dragons the world over, stretch the bonds of the dragons’ friendship like never before.
New friends and ancient enemies clash as the planet braces itself for one of the most outrageous attacks it has ever seen. Lost secrets and untold lore come to light, while sinister forces attempt to steal much coveted magic.
Explosive exploits, interspersed with a chilly backdrop and unexpected danger at every turn, make for an action-packed, electrifying adventure.
The above is a quote that I just had to share. For it sums up the story, I thought, as a fan of Young Adult fiction, perfectly. Fans will revel in this second book of Paul Cude’s trilogy. Its colourful imagery is pure pyromantic. A must.
Imagine…a train station:
“…he followed the hubbub of his own kind in their various guises exiting the station against the backdrop of bright lit neon adverts. It was crowded…dragons in their natural form bustled alongside their human shaped counterparts…wings clipped heads; talons raked shoes…tails were everywhere…it was chaos.”
From the author’s original angle, we follow the adventures of characters, let’s just say are larger than life.
I loved this book, therefore awarding A Chilling Revelation 4 stars.
