Dragon keeper harry potter10/29/2023 I"ve read several novels in the last few years with female protagonists and none of them are as amazing as Vega.

Baldacci knows how to deliver thrills." - Brandon Mull, #1 INew York Times/I bestselling author of the Fablehaven seriesBR /BR / "IThe Finisher /Iis an enchanting romp through a fantastical world worthy of Rowling or Brooks. And survival might come at a price not even Vega Jane is willing to pay.BR /BR / Master storyteller David Baldacci unleashes a hurricane of action and adrenaline that takes readers to the breaking point./DIV DIVPraise for IThe Finisher /I:BR /BR / "This vividly described tale takes readers to an original fantasy world full of strange creatures, intriguing relationships, and long-lost secrets. It's a living, breathing prison designed to keep enemies out and the villagers of Wormwood in.BR /BR / The Quag will throw everything at Vega Jane. But the Quag is worse than Vega Jane's darkest imagining. In order to leave Wormwood and discover the truth about her world, Vega and her best friend Delph must find a way to make it across a terrifying land of bloodthirsty creatures and sinister magic. And she believed it - until the night she stumbled across a secret that proved that everything she knew was a lie.BR /BR / Now just one thing stands between Vega Jane and freedom - the Quag. She was told there was nothing outside but the Quag, a wilderness filled with danger and death. Filled with action and adventure, Zaria and her friends showed us the importance of teamwork, friendship, and having courage in ourselves.DIVVega Jane was always told no one could leave the town of Wormwood. Zaria Fierce and the Dragon Keeper’s Golden Shoes was the magical conclusion this trilogy asked for. Even as an adult I was constantly wondering what was going to happen next.īonus: Zaria continues to be an excellent example of courage, her group continues to be the best of friends despite every single thing they face, and they all show us the importance in being true to you. I would have probably knocked it out in a day, because I would just have to know what was coming up next. It doesn’t waste time getting to the action, it jut gets there. I kept thinking of how I wish I had this book as a middle-schooler, because it hits every criteria I have ever had in a book. We started up right where we left off in the 2nd book and just plowed forward. Action! The plot in this book just kept right on moving.I think this was the best example of teamwork in this series, and a fun way to remind all readers about the importance of working together. To think of the things that could have happened to them had they not worked together…scary. There are disagreements, because no one is perfect (and it would be incredibly boring to read a book where there was NO disagreement happening), but they always worked through it to come to a solution. So much teamwork! In this day and age we have found ourselves working in teams more often than not, and Zaria gives us the perfect example of solid teamwork.We see those that can wield magic struggle, work harder, and eventually succeed. But in life, you struggle a bit to master a skill. They get how to use it and what to do and there’s no real struggle. It’s difficult for me to read a book or watch a movie where the power happens and they get it. The best part about them showing off their magical powers, they have to work for it. In the conclusion of the trilogy we get to see just how the magic works and what some of our beloved characters are capable of. More Magic! We have heard talks of this magic the entire time, and with each book we have gotten to dive just a little deeper with it.What else did I love about this conclusion (without spoilers obviously)…. I have to admit, I would occasionally forget it was CHILDREN going through this and showing intense bravery. In all honesty, I think this was the most dangerous adventure for all of them so far. This fabulous conclusion to a fun series did not disappoint. It seems strange to not be anticipating another adventure with Zaria and her friends, but all good things must end. I honestly cannot believe just how fast this trilogy seemed to fly by. Oh my goodness! Can you believe it!? We have finished our journey with Zaria and the gang.
