(2) YA In this original fantasy, eleventh-grade budding composer Siobhan McQuaid is asked to be bard to teen dragon-slayer-in-training Owen. Johnston has great fun reimagining history in a dragon-filled world. Modern references live comfortably next to those from Viking sagas, often to comic effect. And the final confrontation, due to Siobhan's wry, heroic narration, is nothing short of epic.
