The Fire Within by Chris d’Lacey
The Fire Within is the opening book of Chris d’Lacey’s Last Dragon Chronicles. Interestingly enough, despite the series’ title, and the dragon on the cover, there are surprisingly few dragons in the book. In fact, one could make an argument that the dominant creatures are squirrels. Yes, squirrels. But somehow, it works (dragons play a much larger role in succeeding books).
The novel begins when David, a college student, takes a room with the Pennykettles — mother Liz and young daughter Lucy.
