Endling: The Only
Autor Katherine Applegateen Limba Engleză Paperback – mar 2022 – vârsta până la 12 ani
In the beginning, Byx’s original quest was to discover if there were more of her kind, or if she was destined to become an endling—the last dairne alive. She did indeed find more dairnes, and along the way she also created allies among other creatures in her world, including humans, felivets, raptidons, and wobbyks.
But Byx and her new friends soon learned that it wasn’t just dairnes in jeopardy of extinction, but that everyone was at risk. With the world in unprecedented danger, Byx must rally creatures of all kinds to lead a revolution.
Katherine Applegate’s Endling series has so far earned a collective five starred reviews, and each of the prior books has debuted on the New York Times bestseller list. She once again delivers an action-packed middle grade fantasy with a unique setting, enthralling characters, and gripping adventure that is perfect for fans of Rick Riordan, Brian Jacques, and Tui T. Sutherland.

IN BOOK TWO OF KATHERINE APPLEGATE’S EPIC FANTASY ADVENTURE, BYX WILL BECOME THE FIRST TO LEAD A REVOLUTION.
Byx never expected she’d be the first.
The first of her pack to befriend a human.
The first to defy the ruler of their kingdom and live to tell the tale.
Byx always feared being the last dairne. The endling.
Now she is the first to journey into the unknown.
And the first to uncover a deadly secret.
She will become the first to change everything. BYX fears she’s the last of her kind, the endling. But legend tells of a place with a hidden dairne colony. So she’s on a journey into the snow-covered mountains of the country of Dreyland to find them, along with her friends:
Loyal TOBBLE,
Brave and resourceful KHARA,
Wise but deadly GAMBLER,
and RENZO the magical thief.
As the threat of war grows across the lands, they will face untold dangers at every turn. And when a treacherous plot that could bring both Byx’s dreams and the creatures of their world to the brink of extinction is revealed, they may just become the unlikely leaders of a rebellion.
