This is a fantasy story for 9 years and up according to Amazon but at 58, I quite enjoyed reading it.
The story begins with three children who have tasks to follow, Kayla, Rustus and Alethea.
Rustus who just wants to prove to his family he can be as good as them wants to win the mountain climb to be scorched. His brothers and father have all done it in record time and he feels if he does the same then they would notice him.
Kayla is a Sky Cadet, she doesn’t have family or friends but she has a Pangron that she loves but he can get her into trouble at times. The Pangron can fly and when they pass their test they will patrol the skies above their land.
Alethea is a healer like her deceased Father. There is a new fear, an illness called the Scourge. It is spreading around the districts of the island of Ramoa and a cure for it cannot be found, it was what her father died from.
One way and another they all meet up and after some problems they all set out on their missions that they had all set themselves, though they won't be easy.
I was a bit disappointed with the ending but there is another book to follow the next stage of their journeys.
The last pages are done as a journal, drawing the creatures that you have read about and given facts about them, I thought that was a very good idea.
If you or your child likes a bit of escapism then this is worth a read.
