    Written by Patrick Matthews

    Publisher’s Synopsis: The Hunters are Coming

    The first time a hunter came for him, Bradley Nash was only nine years old. That was three years ago.

    Now, he lives with his family in a Florida trailer park. He doesn’t remember the attack, doesn’t know anything about hunters, or dragons, or even magic.

    As his twelfth birthday approaches, however, his peaceful life starts falling apart.

    The hunters are coming, and if Bradley doesn’t figure out exactly who and what he is, everything he’s ever known will be destroyed.

      Dragons are amazing. Also amazing is that this author has written a story that is geared to teens. Look forward to reading and then passing along to my local library for others to enjoy.

      I’m old enough to remember the original “Pete’s Dragon”–I was a fan then. Now my niece’s son is the dragon fan, and I think he would be really happy to receive this book for Christmas, which will be here before I’m ready!

      My grandson just loves dragons and he is a little behind in school no fault of his own. He lives with a family in Ca and they found dragon books really stimulate his learning. This would be a wonderful book for him as he is 13.

      My youngest son is 11 and loves to read, but we are low on books honestly especially with the libraries closed here. I would love to find him a new series, this looks right up his genre alley as well.

      Just want to mention that I was unable to post on pinterest. There isn’t an icon of picture to pin. So it keeps saying there is a problem.
