We Are Dragon
Alastair Chisholm
Rieka's world is on fire.
She's lived her whole life aboard Constructs, giant mechanical creatures that battle each other for territory. Now a new enemy has swept across the land - DRAGON. And even with all the survivors united against it, Dragon is winning.
Technically brilliant, Rieka believes that she alone can turn the war. But the path she sets out on is dangerous, both for her and her friends. And all the while, there is a truth about herself she must face…
…If she doesn't, she could destroy everything she's trying to save.
The conclusion of the award-winning, Carnegie long-listed I Am Wolf series!
“In our house the anticipation for the final part of this excellent trilogy has reached fever pitch. We will devour it. 15 years and counting of reading to kids and this is up there with the very best!”
“Alastair Chisholm has done it again … Highly original, technically brilliant, and utterly gripping, this is middle-grade sci-fi at its absolute peak.”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I read this book in one sitting, the very definition of un-put-downable!”
“Dragon’s talons hold readers in a tight grip from the very start of this hugely thought-provoking tale with its clever pacing and brilliant blend of mechanical marvels and human emotion at its most intense.”
“Amongst all the tech, and world building, the characters still stand out. Rounded, imperfect, fallible…forgiving, the Cub crew sort of flew, sort of loped and sort of charged into my heart, and they’re characters who will stay there a good while.”
“With themes of power and belonging, We Are Dragon is the perfect ending to what has been a brilliant trilogy”
“…this is a brilliantly written story, which ratchets up the tension to a supremely impressive final conclusion. It can be read as an all-action, thrilling, battle for supremacy between two intelligent foes who will stop at nothing to defeat their enemy. For any reader who wishes to reflect more deeply, it is a wonderful exploration of what it means to be human, to have free will, and to overcome the barriers which divide us.”
“When I first read I Am Wolf [...], I started it with some trepidation because I wasn’t sure it could live up to his other sci-fi books. How wrong I was! I’m sad to have to say goodbye to all the brilliant characters but We Are Dragon is a beautiful end to the trilogy.”
“…an absolutely fantastic children’s story, one I would have loved to have read as a child and one I can still enjoy as an adult. Highly recommended.”
“We Are Dragon is not just a conclusion; it’s an experience that encapsulates everything we love about the series. With its fast-paced action and breathtaking narrative, it sets a new standard for storytelling. Don't miss this must-read adventure that promises to leave a lasting impression!”
“Exciting, thought-provoking and highly original, this final instalment is one that I have been keenly anticipating”
“Epic finale of an excellent children’s series.”
“Packed full of menace and suspense, featuring world-building at its mesmerising best, and with hidden danger waiting round every corner, We Are Dragon is the thrill-packed finale we have all been waiting for!”
