Beskrivning

Elin's family have an important responsibility: caring for the fearsome water serpents that form the core of their kingdom's army. So when some of the beasts mysteriously die, Elin's mother is sentenced to death as punishment. With her last breath she manages to send her daughter to safety. Alone, far from home, Elin soon discovers that she can talk to both the terrifying water serpents and the majestic flying beasts that guard her queen. This skill gives her great powers, but it also involves her in deadly plots that could cost her life. Can she save herself and prevent her beloved beasts from being used as tools of war? Or must she face the terrible battles to come?

Kinesisk fantasy
Detta är andra boken, nu har jag inte läst första boken i serien kungsbestarna men trots det gick det fort att komma in i handlingen. En lättläst fantasy bok som främst vänder sig till yngre läsare, men fast jag sällan läser tonårs literatur så var den helt ok. Jag kommer inte fortsätta med serien då jag föredrar tyngre handlingar men helt ok bok att varva ner mellan min vanliga läsning. Stark 2 i betyg
