Notes from The Radical Reader:

  • Noble Characters: Janner Igiby’s life is the same as every other child’s life in the little town of Glipwood: boring. But when he learns that his mother and grandfather have been harboring secrets about his father, his family, and his name, Janner desperately tries to fight against the Fangs of Dang whose only goal is to find the Jewels of Anniera which they believe lie in Glipwood. Hunted, betrayed, and imprisoned, Janner soon learns that his simple life in Glipwood is anything but boring.
  • Captivating Plots: Monsters, dragons, Toothy Cows, and the dreaded Fangs of Dang. Everything seems intent on destroying the Igiby’s and finding the fabled Jewels of Anniera. As Janner and his siblings fight to protect their family and protect their homeland, the secrets they uncover unravel everything they believed about their past, their present, and even their future. 
  • Elaborate Worlds: From the distant reaches of the Ice Prairies to the legendary Shining Isle of Anniera, the world of Skree is filled with enemies yet desperately craves hope. As the Igiby family fights to forget the past, and press towards the future, the battle for the world has only just begun.
