Review:
Together We Stand is a multi-authored anthology. Below is my review on M.A. Abraham’s Hidden Treasures story.
The story revolves around the Drakaina girls, who from their birth are protected by the Drakes. Every summer all Drakaina are sent to an island for private schooling, which in this world can go on for 50 years; when they reach maturity, they should be able to survive in the outside world of humans and Dragon Hunters.
Nonnie is the one who will teach the girls how to behave, act in front of people, and in time learn how to defend themselves. We meet all the girls, three of whom, are Nonnie’s granddaughters; with all the girls being beautiful, wily, precocious and adventurous. Nonnie is always in control when she watches over them, challenging them to expand their knowledge, as well as well as being strict; especially as they age, they will become very powerful. They will in the latter years, start thinking about meeting their mates.
Nonnie was a wonderful character who worked hard to meld them to be ready to handle the future. It was nice to get to see each summer, as the girls got older, the ones who would excel. Of course, her granddaughters were very good, especially the youngest, who became the one who most of the girls followed.
Hidden Treasures was a fun and interesting short story, that gave us a glimpse at how the Drakes trained and looked after their young Drakaina girls. I really enjoyed this lighthearted story, that was a different kind of read. Hidden Treasures was very well written by M.A. Abraham.
