The Dragon's Promise: Six Crimson Cranes
Autor Elizabeth Limen Limba Engleză Paperback – 30 aug 2022 – vârsta de la 12 ani
Princess Shiori made a deathbed promise to return the dragon's pearl to its rightful owner, but keeping that promise is more dangerous than she ever imagined.
She must journey to the kingdom of dragons, navigate political intrigue among humans and dragons alike, fend off thieves who covet the pearl for themselves and will go to any lengths to get it, all while cultivating the appearance of a perfect princess to dissuade those who would see her burned at the stake for the magic that runs in her blood.
The pearl itself is no ordinary cargo; it thrums with malevolent power, jumping to Shiori's aid one minute, and betraying her the next-threatening to shatter her family and sever the thread of fate that binds her to her true love, Takkan. It will take every ounce of strength Shiori can muster to defend the life and the love she's fought so hard to win.

Maria Nastasia a dat nota:
I will say that Lim writes sensory aspects really well. There’s such great descriptions of the landscape, their clothing and the food—basically everything that brings a place and time to life. I never had any doubt as to where we were and how we were supposed to feel while there. And the second half of the book salvaged the plot for me, though I wish it didn’t take so long to get there. While I was still reading I wasn’t sure I’d be interested in picking up the sequel, but now that I’ve finished I assume that I probably will.
