Book Review: Dragon and Thief
Summary: 5 Stars
Dragon and Thief is a book by Timothy Zahn. It was printed in the year 2003. It is the first book of three in the Dragon back series.
The mian characters are Jack Morgan and Draycos. Jack is a human boy at the age of 14. He is good at lock picking and distractions. Draycos is a K'da. A K'da is an alien species from antother galaxy. They look like human sized dragons. Draycos is a warrior poet. He can write poems and beat people up.
The story is set in the Milky Way galaxy in the future. There is one rulling power in the galaxy but some other factions work in the outer borders. There are many alien species in the galaxy.
The book starts when Draycos crash lands on a planet where Jack is hiding. When Jack goes To investigate he finds Draycos. Draycos's race needs to have a host to live, and with Jack the only one around Draycos must bond wiith Jack.Then Jack and Draycos go out to find who was responsable for crashing of Draycos's ship and save two entire races of aliens.
I would suggest this book to anyone who likes sci-fi. It would be good for teen age group and higher. I don't suggest this this book for yougher kids because there is war in the book. There is also lots of action adventure and suspense.
