The Silver Eclipse: Akkron Kindle Edition

by Kristy Dixon (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.7 out of 5 stars 89 ratings

Something’s wrong in the city of Akkron. When Wren discovers her teacher is a member of a secret group called The Dark Cloud, she has no choice but to open an illegal portal to earth. When she returns home, she finds she has brought back a boy named Graham, and she doesn’t have the power to take him home.

Graham’s goal in life is to get a basketball scholarship and become a doctor so he can help people and be free of his controlling aunt. His plans are derailed when he finds himself transported to a strange and magical world. A world where dragons, giants, and goblins are more than just a myth.

With the help of their friends, Graham and Wren must confront the problem the adults are afraid to act on. As Graham becomes involved in an ancient prophecy, he comes to suspect he might not be a stranger to Akkron after all. Join Graham and Wren on a fast-paced fantasy adventure.

Review

"From the very first page, Kristy Dixon's exceptional writing skill transports readers into the enchanting and perilous world of Akkron. A realm teeming with unique and magical creatures, from menacing giants to colossal trolls, mischievous goblins to majestic flying alicorns, and a mesmerizing crystal cave adorned with floating bubbles of potent energy. Dixon's vivid descriptions breathe life into the world of Akkron." - Reader Views

"I don't know why this book hasn't blown up in popularity but it absolutely has the potential! Fans of Harry Potter and Percy Jackson, this is a series for you!" -goodreads review ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    This was a great read. It was a fun combination of characters from Earth and characters from an alternate world - yet to be named.
    The main characters are teens so it will definitely appeal to a younger audience as well as adults. There are enough things going on to keep everything interesting.
    I can't wait to read the next book.

    **Beta Reader**
    A fun start for a new trilogy. Silver Eclipse follows Wren and Graham as they learn to navigate the political and magical perils of Akkron.

    The book starts with Wren getting herself into trouble, what’s worse, soon she’s pulled an Earth boy into trouble with her. As she and Graham grow closer, they soon have a whole ensemble of friends whose fates are intertwined with the future of Akkron. The friends struggle with the corrupt city and the apparent apathy of the adults around them, but when they stumble into the middle of a prophecy they realize maybe it’s not just evil that’s been working behind the scenes.

    This is very much a set-up book, prepping the readers for what’s to come. The world and rules of Akkron are mapped out slowly as Graham discovers them. A big portion of the story is people (children and adults) acting impulsively, leading into why that’s not always the best idea. It’s interesting to see the adults from the kids’ perspective and realizing that they are somewhat unreliable narrators. It was easy for me to get a little frustrated at everyone at first because of the lack of communication. Because of the teen perspective, the adults appear as people who are never doing enough to right the wrongs of the world, but as things move along we realize that what the kids can’t see is all of the sacrifice and hard work that moved the resistance along long before those same kids ever existed. It’s a slow-burn story arc, and I think it will have a good payoff. I’m excited to read the second book.

    4.5 stars⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    Wren suspects that one of her teachers is a member of a terrible secret group known as The Dark Cloud, she decides to go snooping, and when she discovers that he is in fact a member of this secret society, she panics and creates an illegal portal so that she can quickly escape unseen. Wren does not ever know where her portals will take her, that is part of what makes them illegal and dangerous. This particular portal takes her to Earth where she inadvertently brings back a boy named Graham.
    At first Graham has no idea that he has been transported somewhere else, a place called Akkron. A place where goblins, dragons, and giants exist and the residents of Akkron practice magic. As Graham makes new friends and tries to fit in, he becomes involved in an ancient prophecy and he discovers that this may not be the first time he has been to Akkron after all.

    I loved this story! It had myth and magic and a group of kids who will stop at nothing to uncover the truth and save their home from evil. Graham, Wren, Ming Li and Tal all become an inseparable group after Graham finds himself in Akkron courtesy of Wren and an illegal portal. The foursome have decided that they need to become involved in stopping The Dark Cloud, a group of adults with sinister intentions that are made up of some of the most influential and well known adults of their world. As time goes on and the group discovers more of the history of magic and Akkron, they discover that Graham might not really be a stranger to this place like they originally thought and that the four of them might be the key to saving their world.

    This is perfect for kids and parents alike! It is a fast paced magic filled story that pulls you in from the start and keeps you wanting more at the end, good thing this is only book one in a trilogy! I would recommend that anyone who still believes in magic and is a kid or a kid at heart should read this book, you won't be sorry!

    My 15 year old loves to read and his highly critical of books. (He's a huge fan of Brandon Sanderson and for him other authors just don't compare.) He wasn't super excited about reading it but he burned through it and really enjoyed it. I read it next and once I started, I didn't want to put it down. I was instantly attached to the characters. I am impressed by they're friendship and I love how they have a desire to do good. I actually want to read it right away to my younger 9 year old. I think he'll love it as well. I can't wait for the next book.
