review 1: Ultimately disappointing. While, the initial plot seems to promise a great mystery, as events unfold, things start to go willy-nilly and eventually disconnect completely from any semblance of a good organized story that has any kind of future. The entire book is full of low key events that seem specifically designed not to raise the blood pressure and then all stops get pulled out in the last fifteen pages in almost deus ex-machina fashion that really just makes you want to toss the thing on a shelf without actually finishing. While the initial character building was intriguing and I have to give the author credit for snagging my attention at the get go with our main character's inner thought process, I have to agree with other reviewers that there were several very unreal... moreistic moments where 'voice' did not match character type, and unfortunately, Skye just couldn't hold it together for the finish line.I forced my way through the first book, but then gave it to my son out of frustration, and hope that his nine year old mind will find more interest in those pages than I did.I really need to quit ready young adult fiction...
review 2: totally different than how i thought it would be. it didnt even GET to the word dragon until 3 quarters of the book were done. it was well written and all, i just dont really care about a boy who goes to school and has bullies and likes a snotty girl. idk hahaand i really really liked the idea of growing the dragons and how they come from the stones and nests and how they all looked different and had different personalities. it sucked that they all had to be killed though :/ i thought they were going to keep Pip because she was different than the rest of them and/ or Rydon who is on the cover. Ishmael seemed sweet too because he always looked pleased when Beck was around. Mercury was cool too i woulda been bros with mercury. i dont remember the others.milo creeped me the eff out. i hate illusions haha theyre so confusing.the ending was dumb though. like dont just throw the rock. destroy it somehow. hide it.anyway i liked the elements in the book but the book as a whole was just too long and over explained. less
