When 12-year-old Billy Chan finds out his parents are sending him to a camp in the middle-of-nowhere China, he can't imagine anything worse. He's not expecting to become friends with his fellow campers Dylan, Charlotte, and Liu. And he's definitely not planning to meet dragons. But when the kids accidentally open a crack in an ancient mountain, they become involved in an ages-old struggle of good versus evil. Now they must save the Dragon Realm--or their world might disappear forever.

Is summer camp in China really going to be as boring as Billy Chan expects or will there be some dragon shaped surprises awaiting him?

This book was brilliant. It was fun, adventurous and exciting all the way through. What I personally appreciated was how well the kids got along from the outset, it was so refreshing to see no initial fighting or bullying. They got along pretty well and actually started to get to know each other. Seeing how the dragons reflected the personalities of the children was really clever and I loved how individual they all were. Overall I am really excited to continue this series, it was definitely a strong start. 

I gave this book 4.5 out of 5 stars.
