The adventure really starts when Qibli discovers that the evil Darkstalker has cast a spell on every dragon in Pyrrhia to like him, no matter what they thought about him before. His friend Turtle enchants an earring for Qibli that protects him from all of Darkstalker's spells.
A while after that, Qibli makes the decision to visit his murderous grandfather without knowing whether he'll get killed or not. He finds his careless mother AND the missing Ostrich down in a dungeon and begs Vulture to let them out. Vulture eventually gives in, and Cobra, Ostrich and Qibli make an escape plan. Cobra knows her father's traps and manages to the Qibli, Ostrich and herself safely away from the Scorpion Den.
I would rate this book a five out of five. The introduction is a little boring, but soon you jump into the real story--which is full of adventures, suspense, and worry.
Darkness of Dragons is an exciting read. I do hope you try this book out!
