Write Your Review:
I read this book because my friend, Angela, suggested it. I read this, and I could not put it down (literally). This is probably one of my favorite book series ever. The author provides information and drama for you to stay on your toes and to keep on turning the page. I think that everybody who is interested in animals, love, bravery, and sacrifice should read this book. This book is the first book of the series Bravelands, along with #2: Code of Honor.
