Summary
The primary audience for DragonQuest is Christians who are also readers of the Harry Potter series, approximately age 10 to adult. Donita K. Paul’s books have tremendous appeal for families who are wary of the spiritual warfare surrounding secular fantasy and want an alternative that reflects a Christian worldview. Her other readers include many non-Christians who enjoy high fantasy epics, such as series by C.S. Lewis (Chronicles of Narnia), J.R.R. Tolkein (Lord of the Rings), Brian Jacques (Redwall) and J.K. Rowling (Harry Potter).A New Quest Begins in the sequel to DragonSpellA dragonkeeper of Paladin, Kale is summoned from the Hall to The Bogs by the Wizard Fenworth to serve as his apprentice and tend his newly hatched meech dragon, Regidor. But Kale isn’t going alone. The Hall is sending a student to monitor her performance and report back to the scholars. Worst of all, it’s Bardon- an older boy Kale finds irritating, but who at least can hold his own in a sword fight.New Friendships Are ForgedMeanwhile, the Wizard Risto has seized another meech dragon, bringing him dangerously close to gaining the power he seeks. So with only a motley band of companions, Kale sets out on a desperate quest to rescue the second meech, to free those dragons already enslaved, and to thwart Risto’s devious plans. It’s up to Kale to lead the search and to embrace the role that’s rightfully hers. But will her efforts be enough to save the land of Amara from the dark future that awaits at Risto’s hands?
