Book Review – The Dragon Whisperer by Lucinda Hare

This review was submitted by my eldest daughter (12) who is a complete bookworm and has already made her way through the Inheart Trilogy as well as the Eragon Trilogy.

‘Imagine you could talk to dragons ……’

This book is about a young girl, aged 11, called Quenelda.  She is the daughter of the Earl Rufus De Winter, Commander of the Stealth Dragon Services (SDS).  Quenelda has been riding dragons since she was 3 and her dream is to join the SDS and fight alongside her father in the war against the hobgoblins.

This is a story about danger, tragedy, hope and making sacrifices for others.

It is a truly remarkable book and anyone who enjoys losing themselves in a fantasy novel will love this book.

Thanks Daniella, for your review!
