An interesting introduction to the World of the Petrichor series. Although I wouldn't give it 5 perfect stars, I think this is a book worth reading.

The prose was well-written and descriptive, something I don't see in a lot of self-published books.

The world is also unique, and I am excited to see the kingdoms Hurricane will explore in the next books.

Speaking of, it's really hard not to like Hurricane. She works hard, endures a lot of suffering to provide for her family. She is a pretty likeable character

Overall, I enjoyed this book.

A few things didn't make sense, like...Hurricane and her mom don't get mad at Dust Devil / Dandelion for hoarding gold to pay for a transition surgery. Her family is poor and starving, but when they find out a child is hoarding funds, none of them get angry (except the dad) . Eh? I mean, I get that they accept Dust Devil and stuff, but also, ya can't just hoard money for cosmetic surgery when your family's starving, ya know? Er, and doesn't Dust Devil have a tumor on her tail? Why won't she save up for that instead?

Anyway, that aside, I want to read to the next book in the series! I recommend this book for dragon and wyvern enthusiasts.
