In Dina's world, there are Shamers. She is one of them, and so is her mother.![]()
But no. Not me. Not the Shamer's daughter.
I did not even think of hesitating or refusing to come despite the fact he was a stranger and Beastie had barked at him.And so Dina follows, leaving everything she's ever known behind.
Strictly speaking, it wasn't really Cilia's fault I was bitten by a dragon.So, this book had good bones - just a few things that took me out of it that brought it down.
Beneath my ordinary warm skin I had become a statue, a girl of ice, hard and clear and motionless. She was waiting.Sounds like a typical eleven-year-old, right? RIGHT?
It was probably stupid. But I couldn't help myself.Strange, omnious man says her mother is in danger? OK! LET'S GO!!
Strengt taget var det vel ikke Cillas skyld, at jeg blev bidt i armen af den drage. Det er nok bare en tilfældighed, at hun bestemte sig for at smide en spand vallei hovedet på mig, netop den dag manden fra Dunark kom.
Men hver gang min venstre arm gør ondt ... hver gang jeg savner Lindehuset og pæretræerne og hønsene vi havde dér ... så bliver jeg gal på Cilla én gang til.
