The Last of the Firedrakes by Farah Oomerbhoy

4.0

I’m giving this 4 stars keeping in mind that the primary audience for this book should be 11-15 year olds, in my opinion. It gave me all the Harry Potter vibes and so though I’m above the intended audience age, I appreciated it, if just for nostalgia.

I did like the world Oomerbhoy created. The magic was complicated and creative. The main character was reckless and sometimes annoying but I’ll have to forgive her for being a teenager. LOL.

I listened to this on audiobook, narrated by Fiona Hardingham. She is very talented at speaking in different voices, however for me, some of the voices she chose were kind of grating. I don’t plan to listen to the rest of the book, but hopefully I’ll have a chance to read them!
