The Fire Serpent Legacy
About this ebook
Auri Braga isn’t much of a fighter—not like her parents, who rode the legendary Boitatás, protecting the Amazon and its people. But when she discovers a fire serpent’s egg, Auri knows she can’t stand on the sidelines anymore. Her parents believed the egg should be in Brazil, so Auri isn’t going to stop until their last wish is fulfilled—even if she has to hide the truth from her family.
But getting to the egg safely to the guardians is easier said than done, and when it suddenly hatches, it’s Auri’s turn to be a hero: to protect the new fire serpent and help him save her family’s homeland from destruction.
