Awesome adventure!

Review by Hudson

Anya and the Dragon is a great book. It had a fabulous adventure in it and a great plot. I would recommend it to people who like dragons and/or magic and friendship.

Action, adventure, friendship, and fun

Review by LTinuviel

This is an amazing fantasy adventure set in an alternate Eastern Europe. It alternates between funny interactions between spunky, resourceful Anya and her goofy friend Ivan (the son of a professional fool) and suspense: how will Anya raise money to save her family's home without putting her new dragon friend Hakon in harm's way? Plus, if you know and love goats, the writer does too!

This is the first book in the series and I liked it so much that I went looking for the second one in the library.

Review by Ificouldrewritethestars

I say for younger readers it’s actually a little bit creepy and even I found it a little creepy and I never really finish the book not a great book for young readers

Anya and the Last Dragon continued.

Review by LordOfTheReads

Also, I forgot to put this in my last review, but if you really like this book, there's a second one called "Anya and the Nightengale."

Eleven-year-old Anya and her family are the only Jews in the village. When the magistrate gives her mother a month to pay a huge sum or lose their home, Anya joins forces with her new friend Ivan and his family of magic users. They promise her a share of the reward the tsar will pay to the person that kills the last dragon in the region, but things are more complicated than they seem. Ultimately, Anya must decide whether to save her family or her friends.
