Book of the Day #16: The Last Dragon on Mars (Reintgen)

Title: The Last Dragon on Mars

Author: Scott Reintgen

Publisher: Simon Kids

Pub Date: October 1, 2024

Summary: “Keep your eyes down and your feet moving, or this planet will rust you. That’s what Lunar Jones tells the other kids at the relocation clinic. All of them were born on Mars, a planet that never wanted people in the first place. With resources scarce and hope even scarcer, it’s easy to get distracted looking up. After all, their ancestors descended from the stars.”

Review: “In the world of the story, which is reminiscent of Mad Max and Star Trek, each celestial body has its own dragon avatar. The backstory is fairly well developed, and the short chapters are packed with action…. Fast-paced dragon flights and mid-space fights—plus underdog heroes who are easy to root for.” — Kirkus Reviews

Notes: New York Times Bestselling author of several series including the Waxways series. Publishers Weekly Starred Review. Ages 10 years and up.
