'The most captivating childrens book Ive seen so far this year,' Amanda Craig, The Times Ping is a slave in a little-used royal palace on the edge of the Emperors kingdom. Her tyrannic master is a cruel drunk who neglects his duties as Imperial Dragonkeeper and under his watch the Emperors dragons have dwindled from a magnificent dozen to a miserable two. When one dragon dies, only the ancient and wise Long Danzi remains. His fate seems sealed until Ping comes to his rescue in a moment of startling bravery that reveals her destiny as a Dragonkeeper. Pursued by the Emperors forces and an evil dragon hunter, Ping, Danzi, and a rat called Hua, set off on a remarkable journey across the kingdom. Bound for the Ocean, they carry a mesmerising, beautiful dragon stone that must be protected at any cost. Surviving dangers of all kinds a shape-shifting necromancer, and a ritual sacrifice among them the trio finally arrive at Ocean, Danzis final place of rest. But as her dragon-friend leaves Ping forever, the dragon stone reveals its spectacular secret...

My daughter and I read this when it came out (several times)
I have no idea why we didn‘t read the rest in the series other than we were just re-reading this.

#photoadaynov16 #herebedragons I'm not big on sci fi or fantasy so my dragon exposure is pretty limited. I did however read this a couple of years ago with a friend's daughter as part of our Big Girls Book Club. ☺️

It has been quite a few years since I read Dragonkeeper, but I remember that it was good and #setinasia as in ancient China
Ping is a girl serving the Imperial Dragonkeeper who is a drunkard and now Danzi is the only Dragon left in China. She frees him and they go on a journey through all of China with the rat Hua to get to the ocean where Danzi can live freely
