"Grace and her friends are still recovering from the evil attacks plotted by ancient warlord Daijiang when Nate suddenly reappears and whisks Grace away to the Dragon King's lair. There, she learns that Daijiang is searching for a powerful dragon stone that will help him take over the world -- and that he has enlisted a terrifyingly fierce beast called Shadowfire to capture Grace. Pursued by the Shadowfire, Grace and her friends must get to Paris and stop Daijiang's plan. But their new ally, Dr. Kim, may not be all she appears, and a battle looms that could destroy all of Paris!"--book flap. Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |

I read the first installment of the City of Dragons series last year and I enjoyed that, so I wondered whether the second part would be better. Soon enough, I saw the library I went to get Rise of the Shadowfire so I immediately picked it up and read it. However, when I finished it, I didn't think it was a step up or down.
It starts (more like continues) with the characters that need no introduction, Grace, and her dragon friend from The Awakening Storm, Nate. Rise of The Shadowfire takes a while to get going--half the narrative is about Grace still residing in Hong Kong but not before Nate takes her somewhere else to explain that the antagonist is in an ongoing search for a dragon controlling jewel and it's up to her and her accomplices to stop that before it's too late. Fortunately, the latter half of Rise of the Shadowfire is much faster paced as Grace, alongside others, travel to Paris with the Shadowfire after them. The ending is dramatic, leaving me anticipated for further expansion of the City of Dragons series. ( )
