Burn

Patrick Ness

‘Oh man. I loved it. Absolutely loved it… Burn talks about American racism, homophobia, international relations and arms races, religion, the possibility of multiverses, creation myths… It’s a busy book! A fabulous busy book. Also: dragons. What more could a reader want?!’ – The Book Bag

“On a cold Sunday evening in early 1957, Sarah Dewhurst waited with her father in the parking lot of the Chevron Gas Station for the dragon he’d hired to help on the farm.”

This dragon, Kazimir, has more to him than meets the eye. Kazimir knows something she doesn’t. He has arrived at the farm because of a prophecy. A prophecy that involves a deadly assassin, a cult of dragon worshippers, two FBI agents – and somehow, Sarah Dewhurst herself.
