Wylah is now the Koorie Warrior and she’s determined to free her family and friends from the Dragon Army’s camp. Meanwhile, Tiller, Livingstone and Captain Frye are working on the duality machine, cooking up some alchemical evil.
As the Koorie Warrior, Wylah has great responsibilities. We are introduced to more people that need her help, some friendlier than others, and some new baddies who will be doing their best to thwart her efforts.
There are a lot of new megabeasts to meet as well, including scorpions, spiders and penguins.
This book is jam-packed with action, which young readers will enjoy. My favourite scene, though, was when Wylah was in the Dreamtime with Grandma. I love Grandma.
‘Times of great trouble are coming, Wylah. Many battles will be fought and a war must be won and you need to be ready.’
As with the books before it, this one ends in a cliffhanger. The Dragon Army are not done being dastardly yet.
Thank you so much to Albert Street Books, an imprint of Allen & Unwin, for the opportunity to read this book.
