 In this
cover picture the young brass dragon, Kyani, sits on a valuable
painting, trying to decide if he's going to eat it or not. But what he's
really hungry for is companionship.
Kyani's search for friendship leads him to the gnome, Hector, who
ventures across the desert to complete an invention that will fulfill
his life quest. But Hector's new invention is far more valuable and
dangerous than he realizes, and many forces plan to take it out of his
hands--dwarves, knights, a clever thief, and a colossal blue dragon.
Hector and Kyani must work together to complete the invention before
they lose everything, including their lives.
Reviews of Brass Dragon Codex
I found the characters lovable and flawed—great qualities in any
story—and the plot was always moving, each chapter left me wanting to
read more. . . . an excellent book for any age reader, (Nichole Giles)
The Brass Dragon Codex is a truly enjoyable book. It was a fast and
friendly read, enjoyable for both me and my son. http://grrlinawhirl.blogspot.com/2009/02/book-review-brass-dragon-codex.html
The action goes on and on. And so, too,
does the reader's interest. I'd definitely recommend this book to young,
fantasy loving readers. (Ronda Gibb Hinrichsen) I not only got to read a great book, but I got to read Brass Dragon aloud with my son and that’s one of my favorite things to do. Bonus points were also awarded to Brass Dragon Codex on the merit of actually holding my special needs son’s attention past chapter 1. (Alison Palmer) http://alisonpalmer.blogspot.com/2009/03/brass-dragon-codex-by-rd-henham.html In my wanderings through StoryLand, it's far too seldom that I find a book I want to absolutely rave about. This is one of the few! I loved it and I would whole-heartedly recommend it to anyone! (Wendy Elliot) http://wendword.blogspot.com/2009/02/review-brass-dragon-codex-by-rd-henham.html This was an easy, fun read, which is very understandable, as it is aimed for ages 9-12. Still, part of the reason I read it in one day was it was hard to put down. There was a lot of action and conflicts from so many areas, (Annaliese Lemmon) http://storyengineer.wordpress.com/2009/02/18/review-brass-dragon-codex/
From the first page, I was hooked. Who wouldn’t love a quirky little
dragon that not only talks to inanimate objects, but gives those same
objects a voice in order to take away some of his loneliness? This well
written story drew me right in. As the story progressed, I found myself
so deeply involved with the enchanting tale, that I lost track of time.
(Christine Bryant)
If you like dragons and gnomes, Brass Dragon Codex is a book with plenty
of action. (Connie Hall) There are a lot of really crazy situations in this book, and I can only imagine how funny The Brass Dragon Codex will be to parents reading it out loud to their delighted kids. (Paul Genesse: author of The Iron Dragon Series) http://writerssymposium.blogspot.com/2009/03/brass-dragon-codex.html Don't miss this stunning adventure written by Rebecca
—David Farland, New York Times best-selling author
“Aided by almost
unprecedented access to the Restricted Research Section in the Great Library at Palanthas, R. D. Henham has crafted an exciting tale with many facets: young
adventurers risking their lives as they come of age, ancient dragons clashing in
a centuries-old battle, secret identities, hidden motives, startling betrayals,
and abiding loyalties. Layer by layer, all are revealed in a story that builds
steadily toward a taut and thrilling climax.”
“Red Dragon Codex will
appeal to readers of all ages. Populated with wonderful characters—Mudd,
Sleekwing, Kirak, Hiera, and more—it presents a whimsical, dangerous journey
that races to a satisfying end. A well-written and well-rounded tale that made
me smile.”
“Red Dragon Codex is
such a great read. The imagery made me feel like I was there, especially the
descriptions of the dragons and their surroundings. With great characters, lots
of adventure, and just enough humor to lighten things up, you'll have a hard
time putting this one down. Highly recommended.”
