Greyson won last year’s Writing With the Stars contest with this story, inhabited by both sinister and likable creatures. Her attention to detail, such as the endearing mannerisms of the young dragons, results in characters that are really fleshed out — or, maybe we should say “scaled out,” since the dragons seem as real as the humans. A strong heroine, fantasy, a battle of good vs. evil, magic and romance — what more could you ask for?
Small-town veterinarian Hannah MacPherson is still grieving for her husband, who was killed in Iraq four years ago. But Hannah is needed elsewhere, as unbeknownst to her, she is descended from a line of sacred guardians of the Draecna, magical dragons who guard the portal between two worlds. Hannah’s ability to talk to animals is needed to draw the hatchlings from their eggs. Taggart, a hybrid human/dragon, convinces Hannah to come to the Scottish castle she has inherited, where she is drawn into the fight for the survival of the Draecna and the rebellion against Taggart’s evil brother.
