''This was a fantastic read and I completed it in one sitting as I had to know what was going to happen next.'' ''A quick and easy read that I couldn''t put down. Full of action and adventure, and propecies full of riddles. I think kids will lap this book up.'' ''This a perfect example of why I love Middle-Grade fiction. Jenny Moore has created an adventure with likeable characters and just a taste of a neat little fantasy world. It’s sweet, witty, fun, and clever.'' ''An utterly fantastic, fast-paced, fun-filled adventure, perfect for young adventurers of 9+.'' ''Jenny Moore’s pacey storytelling and the short chapters would make this a great read aloud in the classroom and and independent reading choice too. I''ll definitely be recommending it to my Year 5/6 class this week.'' ''This story is so readable and enjoyable, I could not put it down and found myself surprised at several points throughout ensuring the turning of each page.'' ''With its glorious cover by illustrator David Dean and an exciting, magical and thrilling adventure that leaves the reader hungry for more, this is a book which will delight young readers when it is released at the end of October.

It’s more than five stars.'' ''The most prominent thing for me that made this book stand out from many other middle-grade fantasy adventures is the author''s distinctive voice. From the very start we are in the mind of Emba and daren’t leave her side right up to the ‘calamitous climax’.'' ''Epically hilarious and as heartwarming as dragon fire. Emba Oak is an absolute delight. Huge thanks to Maverick Arts Publishing for this ARC, via NetGalley. Emba is a spirited heroine, with a huge heart and her adoptive family are a hilarious joy from the first to the last page. Cannot wait for the next adventure.''

''If you are a fan of magic, mystery and riddles then you will love this book.''

All the best stories and adventures start with a knock at the door… Or the thwump of a dragon’s tail at the entrance to her cave, in the case of Emba Oak. But then nothing about Emba''s story is normal; from the scales on her arms and legs, to the shocking discovery that she hatched out of a dragon''s egg. Even more shocking is the news that an evil sorcerer is after her dragon blood and will do anything to get his hands on it. Can Emba keep herself safe or will her loved ones pay the price?

Dangerous truths, riddling prophecies and magical toenails: enter the whimsical yet electrifying new fantasy series by prolific author, Jenny Moore.
