Another dragon book series from my childhood I'm re-reading. I absolutely love this series. The characters, the world, the plot. It's great! And, I would totally recommend this to any teen 6th grade or over who wants to read dragon books or sci-fi. It does take place on a different planet where the local wildlife are lizard and dragon-like. The names are a bit strange with double kk's in them (which they explain why in the book), but other than that it's easy to fall into this book and read it in one sitting (well, one sitting for an avid reader). This is book one of a series.
