A Darkness of Dragons Summary

A Darkness of Dragons by S.A. Patrick

In a world of dragons, song-spells, pipers and battles... Patch Brightwater is in disgrace. Thrown in jail for playing a forbidden spell, he is no one's idea of a hero. But then he discovers a deadly truth - the evil Piper of Hamelyn is on the loose. With the help of Wren, a girl cursed to live as a rat, and Barver, a fire-breathing dracogriff, Patch must stop the Piper sparking the biggest battle of them all. Three accidental heroes versus one legendary villain...an epic adventure is born. A perfectly pitched fantasy adventure for readers aged 9+ and for fans of The Hobbit and How to Train Your Dragon. It was a Waterstones Children's Book of the Month in 2018.

A Darkness of Dragons Reviews

All the ingredients of a perfect fantasy adventure. * Kieran Larwood, author of The Legend of Podkin One-Ear *
A Darkness of Dragons creates an exciting imaginary world that will leave children eager to get their hands on forthcoming sequels. * Mark, The Alligator's Mouth *
A Darkness of Dragons is an inspired take on an old story, with engaging characters, a really good story and several unexpected twists. * Linda Wilson, Crime Review *
A Darkness of Dragons is sheer brilliance in children's fiction. I have not been this excited about a children's series of books since a pubescent wizard called Harry Potter first leapt onto the scene. S.A. Patrick's storytelling knows no bounds and is masterfully executed and Patrick builds a quite brilliant original tale whilst also creating an unforgettable magical world for his readers to escape into. * Storgy Kids *
this could turn out to be a fantastically popular new series. [...] S.A. Patrick has adapted the traditional fairy tale to create a fearsome character and then filled the plot with action, suspense and magic from start to finish. * TES *
