The dragonets are back in this exciting sequel to The Dragonet Prophecy. The young dragons
set out to find the hidden underwater SeaWing kingdom and Queen Coral,
Tsunami’s mother. When they arrive, Coral is thrilled to see the daughter who
was stolen from her as an egg, but things don’t go exactly as Tsunami had
planned. She always assumed she was the heir to the SeaWing throne, but a
surprise little sister leaves her confused about her future role, and Queen
Coral’s distrust of the other dragonets causes them to be imprisoned yet again.
Having read the first in the series will help readers understand the
motivations behind the characters’ choices, but isn’t necessary to enjoy the
non-stop action. Tensions mount as someone continues to kill Coral’s unhatched
female dragonets in their eggs, and Tsunami herself is attacked. The dragonets
become more and more endearing as the series progresses, and the adults more
sinister. Moments of danger and brutality are tempered with comic relief,
making this perfect for young adventure and fantasy fans to sink their teeth
into.
