Janet Lee Carey continues the enthralling story of Miles and Hanna in this second book of the Noor saga, following THE BEAST OF NOOR.
In this new piece, the walls between Oth and Noor are crumbling and the trees that guard them are dying. When a strong wind blows through the land and carries away the children, Hanna feels she must find the reason for the theft. She seeks guidance from the deyas, but Tymm, her eight-year-old brother, sneaks out of the house to follow her and the wind steals him, as well.
Hanna sets off on a quest to discover what is going wrong with the kingdom. Miles leaves Othlore, where he is studying magic, to help rescue Tymm and the other missing children. Going along to help is Taunier, their father's sixteen-year-old helper who understands Hanna's unusual abilities. The teens join with a group of dragons, whose interest in solving the mystery could mean the difference between permanent exile and a return home.
This enchanting tale takes readers on a journey they will neither be able to put down nor forget. Carey's characterization is charming, her plot addictive, and her settings beautiful. THE DRAGONS OF NOOR is a must-read for fantasy lovers of all ages!
