Synopsis
With wit and gorgeous art, New York Times best-selling author Eoin Colfer and multi-award-winning illustrator
P.J. Lynch team up again for a quest story of knights, dark magic, and a maiden with powers of her own.
Studious Prince Lir is next in line to become the Wolfhound King, but he can’t ride a horse, lift a sword, or
summon the fabled wolfhounds. So his stepmother decrees that her own son will inherit the crown instead,
sending Lir away on a seemingly impossible—and assuredly fatal—quest: to rescue the maiden Cethlenn from
the once-fearsome dragon Lasvarg. Rather than wage battle, Lir insists that Lasvarg, now decidedly past his
prime, honor tradition by setting him three tasks to perform—starting with tackling the mold encrusting the
dragon’s cave (and his feet!). As Lir improves Lasvarg’s life, he also grows closer to Cethlenn . . . as well as the
wolfhound puppy strangely devoted to her. In time, they learn more of the dark magic that may be making pawns
of them all—and how Cethlenn herself could be the key to breaking a spell that clouds the entire kingdom. With
transporting language and a magnificent dragon masterfully rendered with a range of emotions, Eoin Colfer
and P.J. Lynch make their own magic in this classic fantasy with a light feminist twist.
