What would you do if you were lost in a merciless desert with the lives of your loved ones in your hands?


The death of someone close to me drove me from my home, but there’s another reason for my flight to the dry realm, Ponorama…


With Nathan, Nora, Savitri, Angela, and Chet by my side, we’re set to scour Ponorama in search of my lost brother, Rex. We still hold out hope that he’ll be able to help change the tide in the war against the Dragon Hunters and the Higher Power, but it’s more than that. For my parents, the King and Queen of Zilferia, it’s a way to keep me safe. For me, it’s a way to keep busy and feel productive in the war effort.


Encountering an old friend there, he reveals a creature who could hold all the answers. A Sphynx. The journey to get to her will be difficult, thanks to everything in the desert trying to kill us- scorpions, rock dragons, giant snakes, gryphons, Thunderbirds, and more. But I’m willing to fight against it all to get to the Sphynx and demand answers for how to win the war and find my brother.


But I may not like what she has to say.

Unbelievable story. The things a Crystal and her family suffer is difficult. How will all this change? I was totally lost in the story until the end. Loved it can’t wait for more.

I love this book! Even if I hadn't already become hooked on this series, this book would have cinched the deal! As the romances among the young heroes becomes even more entangled, they take on more and more strange creatures to aid in achieving their goal. On Ponorama, they are threatened by raiders, thunderbirds, and Night Terrors, to name a few. The way in which they overcome these obstacles creates a very satisfying story. I am not usually a fast reader, but I read this book in 3 days...close to a record for me! Unfortunately, NOW I have to wait for Katie to write the next story...I cannot wait!

This review is based on a requested arc copy.

Katie has done it again with this 4th instalment of the Crystal Dragon series. Full of adventure and excitement, this is a real page turner that follows on seamlessly from the previous book.
Crystal, Nathan and the crew find themselves in Ponorama this time, a desert land filled with new and scary creatures and problems. Can they overcome these new hardships? You'll need to read it for yourself! You won't be disappointed!

favorite book yet. Characters are still believable and relate-able. There relationships are top notch. pacing is great, stakes are basically floating above skyscrapers at this point. And of course, they are all thrown into another beautifully written and intriguing world. This book flows smoothly from the others, and even though ive read the entire series, she does an excellent job making those who just sortve stumbled on this one is kept up to pace quite quickly.

*All of my reviews are voluntarily written*

I had originally started out reading books 1-3 as an omnibus, and then I heard there were more books to come! I was so excited when I was able to read book 4!

This book, like the others, did not disappoint one bit. The relationships between characters is constantly growing and becoming more unique. They have to overcome so many obstacles!

I can't wait to see what happens in book 5!

What an amazing continuation of this saga by Katie Cherry. At first I wasn’t sure how this would be pulled off; I mean a desert releam can flop pretty easily. But there were so many twists turns and new creature to learn about I was blown away. Crystal is struggling with finding herself, her anxiety and depression is taking hold it was an emotional roller coaster that I felt connected from start to end. I look forward to the next book which I already rented from Kindle Unlimited.

Superb follow on

After reading the Crystal Dragon set of 3 books, I moved straight onto book 4, and now onto 5. All great stories, and the plot lines are clever and interconnected, especially about Nora, although I suspected when she was brought back from the Desert Realm .
Looking forward to Crystal’s reaction in 5.

I just finished reading this book last night and it was fantastic! The things Crystal and her friends kept having to go through kept me on the edge of my seat.. I was nervous for them... the ending was a twist I did not see coming.. still in shock. Amazing series!

Crystal Curse blossoms with ever more inspired creature creations, excellent world-building and deeper, more vividly evolved characters, all woven into a fabulous story I could not stop reading until I ran out of pages to devour. Great fourth in this series
