Dragonborn: The Twilight Child
The second book in the New York Times bestselling Dragonborn series, perfect for fans of Impossible Creatures.
Having saved the island of Skralla, Alex and her friends face a new challenge to prevent the dragon Drak Midna renewing his war against humanity.
With the mighty Oliphos missing, Alex must travel to the city of Dundarrak in the magical heart of Scotland, where humans and dragons live together, battling side-by-side against an ancient evil. But that evil is growing stronger every day, the old alliance unravelling as unseen powers strike from the shadows.
Surrounded by old friends and new enemies, Alex must master her own unruly dragon-self before Dundarrak falls, with the help of one of the most dangerous allies of all – her mother.
