Eon: Dragoneye (Author: Paanya)

Eon Dragoneye Reborn (reviewed by Paanya)

Wow, the story Eon Dragoneye Reborn is awesome even though there are some hard vocabulary and hard words. It is fiction because it cannot happen in real life. This book is not recommended for fifth graders because of its length and plot. This book is recommended to eight graders because they would be able to understand advanced vocabulary and text.

This book is about a girl named Eona. She is a dragoneye. Dragoneyes are really powerful people. Eona is a mirror dragoneye and mirror dragoneyes are really rare because there wasn't a mirror dragoneye for ten years. There is a rabbit dragoneye, dog dragoneye, horse dragoneye, turkey dragoneye, rat dragonye, ox dragoneye, tiger dragoneye, pig dragoneye, rooster dragoneye, snake dragoneye, monkey dragoneye, goat dragoneye, and dragon dragoneye. The dragons give their power to the dragoneyes that is chosen. When a dragoneye dies the rat dragon picks a new dragoneye for that dragon. The rat dragon is in charge of the dragons and the mirror dragon is in charge of the dragoneyes. Females are forbidden to use dragon magic or become dragoneyes. Can Eona keep her secret or does she have to face death?

Some strengths in this book are first person point of view because it helped understand the character better. Another strength in this book is it is fantasy and it helped add dragons to make the story interesting and fun to read. A weakness in this book is the front cover only appeals to people that like horror and mystery because it has nails and a scary-looking eye. It limits the people that could read the book by its cover.

I do not recommend this book to fifth graders because of the hard vocabulary, complex plot, and text that are hard to understand. I recommend this book to eight graders because they could understand advanced vocabulary, plot and text. I give this book 2 out of 5 star because fifth graders cannot understand books that are that long because they might get confused, lost, and not understand the story.
