The Lost Dragon of Roar

Rose and Arthur are back in Roar, after dodging another one of Mum’s walking holidays. They have been summoned by the Headteacher of the Dragon Rider Academy (DRAc) to return back to school by the next day’s sunrise to complete a very special mission. They excitedly rush back through the camp bed and are happy to reunite with their friends and their dragons, although the weight of their fight with the missing Witch King Jago Skau still plays on Arthur’s mind. They are required to deliver a message to a witch in The Deeps and soon find themselves among lots of witches, some who are secretly hoping that the Evil Witch King returns and empowers Roar. Will Arthur and Rose be able to get out of trouble when they come face to face with Jago Skau again?

This is the fifth book in the Land of Roar series, which sees the stories that Rose writes about a magical land come true when they go through the portal in the camp bed. I have enjoyed reading the previous four books and was excited to be able to read the latest adventure. The stories are told really well and can be enjoyed even if the previous ones have not been read due to snippets of the previous storylines woven through the story. The story is illustrated through the book and adds to the description of the made up creatures and characters. The books are a wonderful read and really spark the imagination of the readers. I am now left hoping that a sixth book is being written!
