A boy named Jake has dreams about his family so he goes to the land of the Red Moon to find them. Jake’s family has been missing since a dragon’s attack on their wagon train. Jake finds out the truth about his family and it sends him on another quest.
The action in "Dragon Frontier: Burning Moon" by Dan Abnett is kind of believable but not really. The story is set in the Old West. The characters are not that well developed and they don’t change very much. The book would be better if there were more action.
The second in the series, which is a mesh of the fantasy and western genres as dragons abound in the old west. It is fairly average with neither fantasy nor western going that well, and a lot of time spent of native American Indian mythology. Just average, but on the lower side.
