Thanks to the publicist for my review copy.

I read the first book in the series The Sacred Scales and knew I had to read what happened next. The book takes up from where the first book ended. Sabina and Hawk are now living with Merlin and training under his and Sir Barlow's tutelage. After Hawk passes a test of his training they find an issue with the water source. They suspect sorcery and Lady Morgan, but she claims innocent and is quite convincing although not fully trustworthy.

This book again takes us to Camelot at the time of dragons and very much good and evil. Due to a toxin in the water people are hallucinating and it's heightening their fear against dragons. From book one we know Lady Morgan wants a war between the humans and the dragons, and she seems to still be on this quest. In this book Sabina is again needed to use some of her new skills and gifts to help both the humans and dragons. Hawk has pledged to always be her protector and if anything happens, he will not stop searching for her. Merlin again is the wise council who is both a mentor, father figure and guide to the children.

Right throughout the faith element is real and well written. We see the real struggle against good and evil and how in times of trouble we are never alone. Sabina also learns more about her mysterious background and gifts and there are crumbs that I am sure will be picked up on in the next book in the series. I really wish these books were around when I was in my early teens. I loved the Narnia books and these books would have also been devoured and reread growing up.

For anyone looking for faith based fantasy books for middle school to teens these books would fit in well. I could actually see these as great books to read to your children and grandchildren. I am 60 and I loved these books so I think anyone who loves fantasy would still enjoy these books.

Toxic water is poisoning the minds of the people of Camelot against the dragons. Morgan proposes joining forces with Merlin, Hawk, and Sabina to find who is responsible. But can they trust her?

This is a faith-filled adventure that fantasy-loving teens and tweens as well as longtime fans of Davis's Dragons in Our Midst world will enjoy reading.
