Bookroo's summary

Tom, a hesitant apprentice, faces chaos when a phoenix hatches, mistaking him for its mother. As war rages between Lord Vatten's forces and Mr. Hu's Alliance, Tom must navigate parenthood and battle. With the phoenix's destructive power looming, can Tom and his friends unite their allies and save the world? The stakes are high in this thrilling conclusion, where loyalty and the true essence of magic are put to the ultimate test.

From the publisher

Tom has always been a reluctant apprentice. But since his grandmother’s death, he’s assisted the tiger Mr. Hu in guarding the magical phoenix egg. When the phoenix hatches prematurely, Tom faces his greatest challenge of all. The phoenix believes Tom is his mother, and suddenly it’s Tom’s turn to be a good teacher and parent, which is especially hard when your child has the power to destroy the earth.A full-blown war has erupted between evil Lord Vatten’s troops and the Alliance led by Mr. Hu. Tom and his motley crew of friends are in for the battle of their lives–and the hardest part may be keeping their allies united in the fight. In this exciting conclusion to the Tiger’s Apprentice trilogy, Laura Ingalls Wilder Award recipient and two-time Newbery Honor author Laurence Yep reveals the ultimate strength of loyalty, friendship, and family and how the true power of magic is knowing when to use it.
