Blast of the Dragon’s fury is a pretween story about a young
boy and the difficult decisions he has to make to save the land of Oomaldee,
and find his way back home. After the murderous deaths of the King, Queen and
the Princess Imogenia by the hand of the Prince, Princess Imogenia makes a deal
in the spirit world to curse the land of Oomaldee until her brother the Prince,
is punished for his crimes.
Flash forward one hundred years and a different world away, Andy
Smithson is in trouble once again and this time his punishment isn’t no video
games, but instead a journey that will teach him lessons about the person that
he can become.
Blast of the Dragon’s fury was a snooze. Nothing about this
book was memorable, except the plot of the story explained everything right
away, with absolutely minimal story being told with no use of the imagination. The
oblivious plugs of better known children story characters did nothing to help
along this story. Children may like it, but that is a big if-if they are not
already readers to begin with. Sadly, this is not one of those hidden gems that
could hook your child into reading.
