Kamori, Mystery of the Pau'i by P. A. Mundi
Children's, 11 years +
9/10
(A gripping read...)
As for the next two...the first is Acorna by Anne McCaffrey, as Meyu's upbringing by Anna reminded me so much of Acorna's upbringing by Gill, Rafik and Calum (hopefully I've remembered their names correctly!) The second is SPIRITS GATE whose epic nature is like Kamori in style and diversity of the creatures
