2023 Aurealis Award for Best Children's Fiction (nominee)
Before there were dragons, there were dinosaurs...
Imagine a world in which the dinosaurs weren't killed by a meteor hitting the earth. A world in which dinosaurs have learned to speak. To dream. To wage war.
Eleri is an oryctodromeus, a small dinosaur raised in an underground warren. He dreams of becoming his herd’s storyteller but when he saves an enemy soldier from a pterosaur attack, he is exiled to the Deadlands. To survive this scorched desert full of carnivores, he joins a herd of other young exiles, including a peppy stegosaur, a stoic sauropod, an irritable triceratops … and a mysterious spy. Can five young misfits save their warring kingdoms?
Includes bonus content: a map and extra dinosaur facts.
Perfect for fans of Skandar and the Unicorn Thief, How to Train Your Dragon and Percy Jackson.
Genre: Children's Fiction
