*2022 Readers' Favorite Award Winner* Jennifer Monroe is an average eighteen-year-old girl, and she knows it. Which is precisely why no one-least of all herself-would suspect anything extraordinary from the quiet, boring girl who only has a few good friends to call her own. But that all got flipped on its head about a year ago, when two imposing men, a complete goofball, a werewolf, and two large four-legged creatures barged into her life. Now over a year later, Jen leads a double life. Mild mannered, quiet, high schooler by day; dragon slayer and raw-energy-wielding-warrior (in training) by night. Juggling SAT scores, papers, and mastering the art of flying, she's managed to keep her friends and family oblivious of her hybrid abilities and continue on a track for college. Everything was going swimmingly. Until one normal, foggy, November morning, when a dragon crashed through the clouds, heralding a small army to descend on her high school. All for little, forgettable her. Making her realize that maybe there's a whole lot more going on than she originally thought.

Jennifer Monroe seems like an ordinary eighteen-year-old girl, living a typical, uneventful life with a small circle of friends. That is, until her world is upended by the arrival of two imposing men, a goofball, a werewolf, and two large four-legged creatures about a year ago. This encounter sets the stage for an extraordinary journey. Now, Jennifer leads a double life. By day, she is just a high school student. By night, she transforms into a dragon slayer and a fierce warrior in training. But her worlds collide in a spectacular way when a dragon crashes into her high school.
The Rise of the Raidin, by Susan L. Markoff, masterfully blends the realms of fantasy with the mundane, creating a captivating and thrilling narrative. The book is beautifully illustrated by Gabrielle Ragusi and Michaella Barnum, which enhances the immersive experience of this "not so average" teenager's adventures. The story itself is engaging, exciting, and visually stimulating. Even without the illustrations, Markoff's vivid descriptions allow readers to vividly imagine the world she has crafted.
The narration is consistently entertaining, ensuring that the reader's interest never wanes. The fight scenes are particularly impressive. They are depicted with such realism and perfect pacing that it feels as though you are watching a movie unfold. Jennifer's character introduction leaves a bit of mystery, sparking curiosity about her background and character development. This intriguing enigma adds depth to the story, making readers eager to learn more about the main character as the plot unfolds.
The Rise of the Raidin is an entertaining read with extraordinary world-building. The story stays with you long after you've finished it. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a thrilling fantasy adventure.
