| | | From the author of "The Thief Lord" and "Inkheart" comes a magical story about a boy named Ben and a silver-skinned dragon named Firedrake. Funke casts an enchanting spell, creating an ultimately triumphant tale about the power of belief and the true meaning of home.
Annotation:
When they are forced to leave their secret home in a Scottish village, a dragon named Firedrake and his pal Sorrel go in search of the "Rim of Heaven," a magical place said to be the last safe haven of the dragons. Although aided by a human orphan named Ben, Firedrake and Sorrel are also being hunted by a dangerous, and very determined, dragon slayer named Nettlebrand.

"While readers may have trouble keeping track of all the plot's strands as they soar through this story, they will no doubt find themselves drawn in by the lively characters and their often hilarious banter, as well as the nonstop obstacles they encounter before the inevitable face-off with Nettlebrand." 07/19/2004 |
