All the ingredients of a perfect fantasy adventure.
*Kieran Larwood, author of The Legend of Podkin One-Ear*
A Darkness of Dragons creates an exciting imaginary world that will
leave children eager to get their hands on forthcoming sequels.
*Mark, The Alligator's Mouth*
A Darkness of Dragons is an inspired take on an old story, with
engaging characters, a really good story and several unexpected
twists.
*Linda Wilson, Crime Review*
A Darkness of Dragons is sheer brilliance in children’s fiction. I
have not been this excited about a children’s series of books since
a pubescent wizard called Harry Potter first leapt onto the scene.
S.A. Patrick’s storytelling knows no bounds and is masterfully
executed and Patrick builds a quite brilliant original tale whilst
also creating an unforgettable magical world for his readers to
escape into.
*Storgy Kids*
this could turn out to be a fantastically popular new series. [...]
S.A. Patrick has adapted the traditional fairy tale to create a
fearsome character and then filled the plot with action, suspense
and magic from start to finish.
