About this listen

The much-anticipated sequel to Zero G and the middle grade debut by Dan Wells.

The colonists from the Pathfinder have arrived on Kaguya, a planet with low gravity but a very dense atmosphere. It’s fun to jump around, but the air makes you loopy. Even worse than that, the heavy atmosphere means that wind storms, although rare, are absolutely devastating.

Zero and Nyx help to get everything locked down before the first big storm, but they stumble onto a group of thieves who have stolen some mining equipment. Before the kids have a chance to get away and tell anyone, the storm hits and the massive winds carry them far away. Zero and Nyx are stranded on an unknown planet with no way to communicate, being chased by thieves, and with another storm bearing down on them.

And, oh yeah, this planet has dragons.

It will take more than just good luck to get back to the colony. It’s going to take science.

Great book!

This was a great story. My 10 year old loves the first book in the series & immediately after Zero G asked if there was a sequel. It’s a great listen for the whole family. He thinks this book was at least as good as the original story and “maybe even a little better.”

Fantastic Sequel

I love a kids adventure story. This has the wonder of discovery and a clever duo to over come the bad guys once again. You gotta get book 1 "Zero G" for the set. These have become my favorite kids stories and I cant wait till my kids are old enough to get into a good book.

Title of book is misleading

Overall, my son and I loved listening to this series; however, with the title of Dragon planet, we expected there would be more dragons/ dragon interaction. Kaguya or New Planet would have been more fitting because the story revolved around the kids exploring the new planet instead of encountering the dragons on Kaguya. There is a dragon they meet twice but at a distance. Other than that, it was a great continuation of Zero-G, and we hope there is more to the series

Loved it!

I loved Zero G and this is book 2. It was fun and full of adventure, great for all kids. Read book one first though. Zero and Nyx are a fun couple of kids that just want to learn the science but find themselves in another mystery. Thanks, Audible for the freebie. I hope there is more adventures from this series. Narrator is great.

Superb storytelling!!!

I can't remember the last time I truly laughed out loud with an audiobook. this story is great for mom, dad and all the kids. I would listen to 50 more additions to this adventure, and I might listen to this one again.
