The Ice Dragon By: George R. R. Martin Illustrated By: Luis Royo
Adara was born during the worst freeze that anyone had ever experienced, and was a winter child. She was not like other children, and stayed out to play in the snow for as long as she wanted building great castles of snow. It was in the winter time that she saw the Ice Dragon, and was able to touch it, and fly on it. Unrest was coming to her small land, and fire dragons and their riders were coming to attack and take over. Adara used her ice dragon to rescue her family, and he paid the ultimate price.
This book was beautiful. I loved the story, and the illustrations were ones that would make me stop and stare. I thought that this beautiful girl who was so alone in a way, had a friend in the ice dragon. This book would be great for any reader upper elementary and up to adult.
I borrowed this book from the public library.
