Why read it?
1 author picked The Dangers of Being Brave & True as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This story is decidedly YA, but I like to sneak them in on occasion! There is something sweet and powerful in a coming-of-age, young adult fantasy that I find hard to ignore.
And this one has it all: two unlikely friends who must find a way to work together to save their world, surprising twists and turns, and a rich, vivid world that feels completely real. It reminds me a bit of what I loved about Narnia in a new take.
From Autumn's list on elemental magic and fantasy adventure.
