Kindle Edition Verified Purchase. Lots of grammatical errors throughout--enough that it ruined the reading experience for me.

I gave this to my teenage son to read, without telling him what I found, and he gave up too. When a teenager finds multiple mistakes and consistency errors, it's telling. The author's reply to another reviewer that he doesn't have any control over the paper copies of a self-published book is laughable.

Authors choose who prints their book and the quality they offer readers. I highly suggest this new author hire a competent editor and learn more about the publishing process so he can deliver something worthwhile.

This is a wonderful tale about dragons that was intriguing and entertaining. Dragons are bred and raised by humans and they are smaller in size so they can be tamed to be a pet or they can defend you against danger. It's when he agrees to act as a courier and bring an egg to a buyer that he finds himself in the middle of trouble The author sent me a copy of this book to read for review thank you.

It has been published and you can buy a copy on Amazon. What happens is that hired killers come after the seller. He's got the goods, so they are after him, too. They beat him and leave with what they think was the egg.

He grabs the whiskey bottle and sneaks away from them. When he calls the buyer to tell him about, the buyer is on the run, too. Things continue to go wrong. He meets a woman he could love but she has a boyfriend.

He hatches the new dragon and it grows larger than any others he has. Then the dragon gets stolen There are chapters on the types of dragons he's raising and it tells you their characteristics and what they eat it's fruit, not people. He's created the ultimate fantasy dragon world and I really enjoyed the story. I liked it well enough I have just ordered my own copy for my library. With all the books I read, that's kudos to the author for a book well done that I would read again.

You'll love it too. It's a wonderful mix of excellent science fiction, fantasy, and real life love for animals. Excellently written, outstanding characters, delightful and moving moments, humour, and serious action scenes.

And of course, dragons. And urban setting, comments on our misuse of natural resources, The writing goes from natural first person to scientific third person when necessary. A dose of mystery: And what about the Night Flier? Well, if you're not hooked by now Go ahead, buy this book. You'll not regret it!!!!

GEN asks if it is adequate for younger readers. I would say it certainly is.

There is some violence but it's not very explicit and most happens out of sight. There's no sex and the relationship between characters is sound healthy. I would recommend it for 10 upwards.

Buy for others

Who can resist the thought of a pet vegetarian Dragon? For me, it would be a "Pern" dream come true. And who knows what the future may bring? This story takes place in the not-so-distant future, in a drought damaged United States. The Hero is a likeable guy and a responsible breeder of pet dragons. Pet dragons that include among many other species a variety called the American Mustang gotta love that name.
