Dragon School: First Flight

Join Dragon School. Learn to Fly. Sixteen-year-old Amel arrived at Dragon School just like everyone else – with a dream to ride dragons and join the Dominion Dragon Riders. But Amel has a crippled leg and Dragon School training is gruelling. Before she can even become an initiate, she must complete her First Flight on a dragon. Can Amel survive First Flight and become a Dragon School initiate or will her dreams dash on the rocks below?Fans of Anne McCaffrey’s Dragon Rider’s of Pern, Christopher Paolini’s Eragon and Rachel E. Carter’s First Year will love Dragon School.

"I really liked this book. First of all, is has some of my favorite things in it. It's a fantasy book about dragons! But there are a lot of other elements within it that I really appreciate. I love Amel. She is a great character. Despite her disabilities, she is strong and courageous. And don't get me started on Raolcan. I'm just one book in and I already love him! All of his snarky remarks and his quick way of taking Amel under his wing, no pun intended. He's sweet while being ferocious and I just love that about him. There are a lot of great characters in this book. And a lot of not so great characters. Not that they weren't written well, just the opposite in fact. I just wish the others would treat Amel better, but I know this will just make her stronger and more eager to prove herself. I like the idea of there being a school where you can learn to ride and take care of dragons. That sounds like a great place to be. It will be exciting to watch Amel go through her training and become a Dragon Rider, showing everyone that her disabilities don't stop her from being good at something. Overall, the characters, the setting, the message, and the plot are all fun and exciting. I can't wait to see how each of them grow."
