The book has both adventures and growth. I enjoyed the character development of Jade and how she is often thinking of others but is reminded to also take care of herself. She shares her growth and experiences with others as she teaches them magic. The connection between Miria and the dragons is a great mystery that I hope is explained in the next book. I love the description of the different landscapes, magical creatures and the mechanical forms of transportation. This is a great book for a young adult looking for a story adventure and friendship.

I have never been a big reader of Sci Fi Books but because this had Dragons & Magic in it I was intrigued & how glad am I . It was a brilliant read & I look forward to more in the future . #NetGalley, #GoodReads, #FB, #Amazon.co.uk, #Instagram, #<img src="https://www.netgalley.com/badge/8a5b541512e66ae64954bdaab137035a5b2a89d2" width="80" height="80" alt="200 Book Reviews" title="200 Book Reviews"/>, #<img src="https://www.netgalley.com/badge/ef856e6ce35e6d2d729539aa1808a5fb4326a415" width="80" height="80" alt="Reviews Published" title="Reviews Published"/>, #<img src="https://www.netgalley.com/badge/aa60c7e77cc330186f26ea1f647542df8af8326a" width="80" height="80" alt="Professional Reader" title="Professional Reader"/>.

I paused on this book at first due to the image on the cover and I am so glad that I did. It is one of my favorite story types. Dragons and a young girl finding her strength as the story progresses. Jade learns about her strength with the help of her friends she finds along the way. Jade discovers what all she is capable of doing and the truth of what is going on in the kingdom she is fleeing from.
While this is the first story in a trilogy and you are left wanting to learn more about Jade and her friends, you aren't hanging. I can't wait for the next book and see how this adventure continues.

This was such a wonderful and enjoyable read!!!! I loved this book and highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys this genre. Thank you so much to the publisher and NetGalley for an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

As these three young people work together to find their parents, the imagery dials up several notches to build a visual that matches the cover. The story line contains so much of what draws young readers to a series that it's bound to be a hit with the target audience. As the first book in the series, it has set a high bar for the next book.

L. A. Thompson's writing in this trilogy opener captivates readers with its magnetic, impassioned, and clever narrative. Fans of Angelique S. Anderson's Dracosinum Tales and Jessica Drake's Dragon Riders of Elantia series will find Thompson's storytelling both familiar and uniquely captivating as they follow Jade's epic journey through a world where steampunk innovation meets the mystique of high fantasy.

A very clever and cute story. I love anything with dragons and this didn't disappoint, especially by adding in a loveable trio of characters!

What a fun and exciting read! As a fan of dragons and adventure this book was such a fun action packed fantasy. The author does an amazing job making such a vivid and exciting world of magic and dragon with such excellent world building.
