Thirteen years ago, a child was left in the care of Jun and Chikako. Soon he’ll discover his destiny—if his enemies don’t kill him first.
The Awakening By Andrew Wichland
❀ღ✿•* ̈`☆🐝🐝SYNOPSIS🐝🐝☆ ̈`*•✿ღ❀
Today is Alec-Ryuu’s thirteenth birthday. And he takes his final test in preparation for joining the resistance against the dreaded and powerful Black Dragon. Nonmagical beings have been forced into hiding by the dragon’s rule, and Alec-Ryuu’s small village lives under the constant threat of exposure and enslavement. Alec-Ryuu, or Ryuu as he prefers to be called, is not your average human. He is the son of a being of great power—stronger, smarter, and faster relevant book reviews or quotes. than friends and rivals alike. A gold-embroidered box in a cliffside cave sits waiting for Ryuu and his friends. The box’s contents offer the strength to finally strike back at the Black Dragon, should the young warriors have the opportunity.
But that opportunity may be over before it begins. Emissaries of the Black Dragon have discovered Ryuu’s village, and the time has come for the ultimate choice: surrender to a life of slavery, or fight—and possibly die—for freedom. A fascinating mix of fantasy, science fiction, and mythology, Dragon Knight Chronicles begins the story of Ryuu’s struggle against the most powerful being in the galaxy.

Fast-paced action + Noble characters = Solid read

Format: Kindle Edition
If you look at the comments from the one-star review, you can see exactly why this book IS well-suited for "tween" boys---whom I would say is the main audience. The Power-Ranger-Lord-of-the-Rings combo, which that reviewer denigrates, contains both the action and the fantasy world details that kids this age enjoy. Even reluctant readers should be drawn to the fast-paced battle scenes, the sports (think space-age Quiddich), and the detailed descriptions of armor, outfits, martial arts, spaceships, etc.
Ryuu, a smart boy who is a bit younger than his friends, is a well-developed character. He isn't the perfect son, but he's doing his best. His adoptive parents have also done their best to raise him right, and the book contains positive messages about his personal quest to "possess the right frame of mind in order to gain strength, knowledge, and peace." What young reader wouldn't benefit from a goal like that?
In the larger picture, Ryuu's whole world has been in danger for some time, and it will be up to him and his friends to serve as Dragon Knights and battle the formidable foes here and in future volumes. For fans of this genre, this book packs a solid punch.
5.0 out of 5 starsAdventurous....

The author of this book has very imaginative ideas. This book also has a lesson in the story, which is to be a strong person, to be able to overcome your problems. This is what the main character of the book had to do on his quest.
