MY REVIEW:
I love that Bryan Davis has such an incredible imagination and that he sees fit to share it with the rest of us. In this first book, "Starlighter", Bryan introduces us to Jason and Elyssa from the planet that would be the equivelant of earth. Then he introduces us to Koren who is on a different planet ruled by dragons where humans are slaves. Jason is supposed to find the portal that connects the two planets so he can rescue the lost humans on the dragon planet. On his planet all of the talk of the dragon planet is just considered myth, so the odds are stacked against him. This book was so engrossing that I finished it in one day! I look forward to the next book in this series because this one wraps up some points but leaves plenty more hanging!


ABOUT THE AUTHOR:




Bryan Davis is the author of the bestselling fantasy series Dragons in Our Midst, Oracles of Fire and Echoes from the Edge. He and his wife, Susie, have seven children and live in western Tennessee where he continues to cook up his imaginative blend of fantasy and inspiration.
