Joniece Abbott-Pratt narrates a young adult adventure in which high fantasy is mixed with a modern setting for a bizarre and creative tale. Listeners are transported to a unique world in which Sarah's father hires a dragon to work their farm, which leads to her discovery of a prophecy. Abbott-Pratt navigates diversity as she portrays a dragon-worshipping cult and a group of young adults who include biracial, African-American, Japanese, and LGBTQ characters. Handling discrimination with grace, Abbott-Pratt helps listeners feel the unfairness of the situations through her tone, varied pace, and volume. Her portrayal of Sarah's Russian dragon is impressive in this tale of self-discovery and adventure, which is brightened by Abbott-Pratt's robust vocal performance.
