Our Review

A world transformed by the discovery of ancient magic books and the bones of dragons sets the stage for this gripping middle-grade fantasy, where only a new generation of children can wield the dangerous power that has reawakened. The story centers on Fort Fitzgerald, whose life is shattered when his father disappears during a monstrous attack on Washington, DC, plunging him into a reality where magic is real and the stakes are terrifyingly personal. This setup promises a fast-paced adventure that explores themes of loss, responsibility, and the burden of being one of the few who can confront a new, magical world.

What distinguishes this narrative is its compelling blend of high-stakes fantasy with the deeply relatable emotional journey of its young protagonist. Fort's quest is not just about battling giant creatures but about finding the courage to grasp a power he may not fully understand in order to save what he holds most dear. Readers who enjoy series with intricate magical systems, high-concept plots, and characters thrust into impossible choices will find themselves completely absorbed from the first page. This is the kind of story that sparks the imagination while anchoring its epic events in genuine human emotion.
