What this book is about
The first Wingfeather Saga novel follows Janner, Tink, and Leeli Igiby in a world occupied by the reptilian Fangs of Dang. Andrew Peterson writes Christian-influenced middle-grade fantasy with warmth and humor; the world-building is inventive and the family bonds are genuine. The occupation violence is present but handled with age-appropriate restraint. Beloved by Christian families; appropriate for all ages.
