The Raging Fires by T.A. Barron is an amazing book that has lots of action, a great story, and it draws you in and keeps you until the end. It is the third book in the Lost Years of Merlin series so it may be confusing for newcomers to the epic series. In the beginning, Merlin is crafting his first instrument that all young wizards have to create as a kind of activation of his full powers. But when a kreelix, a creature that was believed to be extinct, attacks Merlin and saps him of his power and destroys his instrument, everything changes. He is later told by Urnalda, queen of the dwarf kingdom, that the dragon Valdearg has awakened from its long sleep. Only to find its eggs all destroyed and the baby dragons inside killed. He goes into a rage and attacks the dwarves. In the middle, Merlin learns that he was accused of the murder, and on top of that, a profisy that tells of him confronting the dragon and, as he interpreted it, he must die. So he goes to save the people of Fincayra and to confront the dragon. But will he be able to stop him without the ancient relic the Galator? And will he die saving Fincayra?
