Book Feedback

Hey Room 14!!! I'm writing a book and I want your feedback. It doesn't have a title, and it's only the first chapter. It's fantasy, and blends futuristic( laser beam security, airships), mideval( swords and armor) and modern ( guns). It involves seven dragons being controlled by seven pieces of armor. It tells of a girl who steals a piece of armor, becomes a dragon rider, and attempts to overthrow the evil tyrant ruling the land. I want your feedback on what I can do to improve it, titles or addons to the story. https://docs.google.com/document/d/16OJQ3phNxDbcMiBUadMtu8EbecTPJPiSe3OVCB9gReg/edit#

P.S. I have not added fillers, so this is bare bone. The final will be longer.

Camp

Camp was great!!!!! The classes were interesting , free time was neat, and the food was good. My only complaint was that by the end of the week, I had cabin fever, along with the rest of my cabin. Cabin fever is when your just sick (and Madrone cabin, I mean no offense) of seeing the same people over and over again. Otherwise it was awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
