Budding detective Elodie apprentices herself to crafty dragon Meenore; a kindly shape-shifting ogre is their first client. Levine's strength lies in her transparent language and the candid, uncomplicated voice of her narrator, who brings readers along as she questions assumptions, grows in friendship, works out the mystery, and makes brave escapes.
