Guardian of the Dragons: A Mage's Quest

By Gary and Isabel Walbourne

Book Overview

When Garigard Kirton's great-grandfather, the Healer Alden McGarkin, is reported missing from his home village, Garig goes on a quest to rescue him. On an adventure with Dragonus, the family's dragon of many generations, Garig meets highwaymen, does sword fighting, and tangles with mercenaries on his way. When he gets there to rescue Healer McGarkin, he learns that the powerful mage could have left anytime he wanted to. They also rescue Princess Isalora of the Mainland, another ransom victim. Garig learns that magic is passed down the generations in the bloodline. Anyone who has magic is known as a witch or a wizard. Only the most powerful are known as mages. A mage's power, intensified with crystals, can be used to control their subjects and possessions, and for fighting with other mages-good or evil. Garig is asked to take over a dragon, who turns out to be Dragonus' brother. And Garig wins another dragon from a witch, Lady Lillith, who is working for his long time family enemy, Lord Odius Von De Stoop. This rises Garig's position to Lord, being the winner of a fight of magic. Progressing with his magic under the teaching of Healer McGarkin, Garig learns of his destiny that is actually already laid out before him. Healer McGarkin is not only a powerful mage, but also the Head Mage of the Guardian of the Dragons family, as well as Head Mage of the Council of Mages. Garig is to inherit these positions and responsibilities. He left home as a young teen, but comes back as a young mage, now Lord Garigard Kirton. And he will continue the feud that has gone on for generations-or try to stop it.
