Dragons. Right. Teenage girls don’t believe in fairy tales, and sixteen-year old Elena Watkins was no different.



Until the night a fairy tale killed her father.



Now Elena’s in a new world, and a new school. The cutest guy around may be an evil dragon, a Prince wants Elena’s heart, and a long dead sorcerer may be waking up to kill her. Oh. And the only way Elena’s going to graduate is on the back of a dragon of her own.



Teenage girls don’t believe in fairy tales. Now it’s time for Elena to believe – in herself

I was sucked into this story within first few words. It was filled with a lot of action, and suspense. I couldn’t get enough of this novel, what a great new series about dragons. I have gotten into books about dragons couple years earlier, and after coming across FIREBOLT while on Netgalley I have fallen in love with them even more. Despite fact that I read few novels about dragons, each of them were unique in their own, especially this one. FIREBOLT was unlike any of the others that I came across before. Who would have thought that dragons had to be claimed, and fact that there is different type of dragons? It wasn’t something that entered my mind, up till I read this book. I know that it’s fictional novel but feels like I learned so much more about dragons that I was aware of before reading this book. To me it was like a complete new experience and everything that happened in the book, was breathtaking.



Elena, you couldn’t help but love her and feel sorry for her. That girl went through so much. Discovering that her father was a dragon, and that all those times it what he been protecting her from them. I felt like she didn’t have time to grief her father’s death the way that she should been able to because she had to start new school pretty fast, and having to deal with new school, new classmates. Top of that I could tell that she was struggling with her classes as well. Of course those classes were not like any regular classes. Not only that but fact that in order to graduate, she had ride on back of a dragon. That’s a lot to handle for one person. I can’t even imagine how she managed to do all that. I loved fact that she didn’t give up even as things got tough. She kept on going. Especially once she decided go after that sword, that was the biggest risk that she took. I was afraid that she would get herself killed. That took a lot of courage. I could tell how much she changed from the beginning of the book to the end.



I cannot wait till the next installment in the novel. I’m still finding myself thinking about the story, the characters even though few days had passed since I had finished the book. FIREBOLT is a story about family, love, discovery, courage and hope. Part of me felt like I was reading harry potter, expect with dragons in the mix. A magical adventure that you will be glad you picked up. A story, an author who will transport you into this fabulous adventure. Be ready for an adventure of lifetime.
