Scorched: Volume 1 [Idioma Inglés] - Tapa blanda

Sixteen-year-old Trinity Foxx thought she'd heard everything. Until Christmas Eve, when her kooky grandpa brings home what he claims to be the world's last dragon egg. Trinity thinks he's been duped, until soldiers break into the museum, her grandpa goes missing, and a mysterious boy from the future announces he needs her help to save the world from a dragon apocalypse. Connor Jacks is a Dragon Hunter, sent back in time 200 years to prevent dragons from scorching his world. His mission is simple: destroy the egg, save the human race. But Connor's not the only one after the egg. His twin brother Caleb has been sent back in time, too--on a very different mission. Caleb believes dragons have the power to save mankind--if we first save them. In a race against time, Trinity must choose which brother to believe--and which to trust. Should she destroy the baby dragon or save it from harm? The fate of the world may depend on her choice.. NOTA: El libro no está en español, sino en inglés.

Mari Mancusi always wanted a dragon as a pet. Unfortunately the fire insurance premiums proved a bit too large and her house a bit too small--so she chose to write about them instead. Today she works as an award-winning young adult author and freelance television producer, for which she has won two Emmys. When not writing about fanciful creatures of myth and legend, Mari enjoys goth clubbing, cosplay, watching cheesy (and scary) horror movies, and her favorite guilty pleasure--playing videogames. A graduate of Boston University, she lives in Austin, Texas with her husband Jacob, daughter Avalon, and their dog Mesquite.
