New Dragon City | Mari Mancusi
4 posts | 3 read
Set off on a high-stakes, action-packed adventure in this story about friendship, survival, and fighting for ones you love, perfect for fans of Wings of Fire and How to Train Your Dragon. No one predicted the dragon apocalypse. The dragons came suddenly and decimated the world as we knew it, including New York City. Now, three years later, Noah, his hardcore survivalist father, and a ragtag group of survivors are barely scraping by in this new reality. Kids scavenge not only for materials in abandoned homes but also for leftover books at the library. Adults spend their time establishing a make-shift society and defending their shelter... with any means available. At least for the few months the dragons are hibernating, until its no longer safe aboveground. Noah has seen the damage these creatures can do firsthand. When it comes to dragons: It's kill or be killed. But a chance encounter between Noah and a young dragon forces him to question everything he thought he knew. With rumors spreading that theres a group of survivors living in harmony with dragons instead of hiding underground, Noah teams up with his fire-breathing ally to find out if peace between humans and dragons is really possible. But the division runs deeper than scales versus skin because trying to follow his heart might just cost Noah his family too. If Noah and his father cant see eye to eye, can he really get humans and dragons to?

I received two huge boxes stuffed with Christmas gifts from my best pal, @DaveGreen7777 ! Thank you so so so much, Dave! 💕📚A couple of these I've never heard of and am super psyched to check out! And a few others are ones I've wanted forever! I am just over the moon excited for all of these! I am so grateful every day for you!

Also not in view are two Orphan Black Funkos! 😱

I think I'm going to start with the tagged book...for reasons! 🤭🐉

Initially, I saw the how to train your dragon, but this drove home the point of brother bear so much more. Dragon apocalypse and humans live underground. Hate for each other, with no idea where it started. Cue one boy, one dragon who dare to do something different when they don‘t see the other as a monster. This book had me on the seat edge many times. I loved the connections made between the herd and humans; it‘s a vicious cycle.

But you couldn't run away from the truth. That was something her mother had taught her long ago. You could try, but it would always catch up with you. Better to face it head-on. Then you could find a way to deal with it.

Very modern retelling of HTTYD but post apocalyptic!
