Donavah, a young teen girl, sets out on a hunting adventure with her two friends, Grey, and Traz in the novel SpringFire. Xyla, a red dragon and one of Donavah’s allies, is flying the crew to a forest, where they can hunt. While they are flying, DragonMasters attack them and they are plunged into another world; the Stychs. When Donavah, Traz, and Grey regain consciousness, they are in a mysterious cave. A few days later, a woman named Shandry appears to try to help them. Traz, Donavah, and Shandry have to venture out to the closest village in order to save Xyla, who is very sick. Donavah faces several challenges and must battle many people in order to stay alive.
Springfire is amazing! I was glued to the book and my heart was racing as I flew through each page. It’s a very easy read, but there were many details (some grotesque), but I think they were necessary for the genre. When you read SpingFire, you feel you’re right there in all the action as Donavah uses her maejic. The reader feels the pain of her battles. Terie Garrison made SpringFire a heart wrenching adventure. If you are looking for a magnificent dragon fantasy adventure, this is the one!
