Anomalies 53 #2: Dragon Dreams

A Junior Library Guild Gold Standard Selection! Cross over to another realm in the sequel to Anomalies 53, Dragon Dreams!

It’s been a month since Ollie and Garen said goodbye to each other. A month since they crossed into the Shadowland, fracturing the magical balance between realms and almost destroying the world as they know it. A month since they discovered their true selves—shapeshifter and gatekeeper.

Everything should be normal now – or as normal as normal can be. Ollie’s in Miami, and Garen’s on the other side, keeping the peace in the Shadowland.

But when a gate to the Shadowland briefly opens—and a note from Garen saying “HELP!” falls into Ollie’s lap—it becomes clear that their story isn’t over yet. Before Ollie knows it, his Dad and Dr. Jackson have been snatched, and he finds himself in an alternate realm—a dark and lawless place called Morgumbra.

With Ollie’s inner dragons fighting him for control, Ollie will have to tame the beasts within in order to save everyone he loves—or risk losing his family, and the Shadowland, to the darkest forces.

It’s a high-flying, vividly imagined new adventure from beloved author and Pura Belpré Award-honoree Angela Cervantes.
