Heroes: Wylah the Koorie Warrior 5 by Richard Pritchard

Give me strength Bunjil, our creator. Give me what I need to free the children, to free the animals, to free the world from the dragon army.
I never wanted to be a warrior.
But now I will roar louder than any wild beast they have ever heard.
I will show them a warrior that will tear their proud army to pieces.
This isn’t a game. I’m coming for their Queen.

The stakes have never been this high, and Wylah has never been this determined, but how on earth can she and her rag-tag collection of friends and allies ever hope to defeat the vast resources of the Dragon Army?

Is this the end for the Koorie Warrior… or is this only the beginning?
