Evaluate About Books Dragon and Thief (Dragonback #1)

The first in the series of 6 books by Timothy Zahn, this middle school level science fiction book is awesome!The story takes place in outer space with adventures, intrigue, suspense and space wars! Jack Morgan is the young orphan who has to use all the wits and experience he has gained in his young life to survive an interstellar frame-up. He witnesses a space fight and in the wreckage, he finds no survivors, he thinks. But he becomes the host for the only survivor, Draycos, a K' da warrior. The

Really enjoyed this. Although it started just a little on the slow-side, I got into it pretty quickly after the first chapter. I loved the classic Timothy Zahn twist at the end that I did NOT see coming, even though I was expecting a twist of some kind. I look forward to reading the rest of the series.

I absolutely loved this book when I first read it at 14. The series as a whole is surprisingly touching, and even though the books each relate a separate adventure, it combines into a whole very well.

A portable companion

Jack muttered a word that had once cost him a week of desserts.Entertaining science fiction for young readers that harks back to the early days of SF, before we got all cynical and crude. Not that our fourteen-year-old protagonist isnt a cynic, but thats part of the fun. Thinking smarter you know everything at that age is such a burden, and a delight to those around you.It is interesting, is it not, that people so often turn out to be different than we expect. Dont fool yourself, kiddo.Lots of

I found it to be "blah"...
