Dragon Solstice

This new American fable for the Holidays confronts the mysteries of dragons, vampire bats, sea serpents, time travel and the North Pole with wry, heartwarming humor as the pleasant, ordinary lives of citizens in a tiny Medieval kingdom are interrupted by an angry witch “vanishing” their young, beloved royal twins.

William of Linke, the Whipping Boy, is immediately promoted to King’s Champion. Enchanted armor, shield and sword are William’s weapons. The sword, broken in half during an ancient battle, now has a double-pointed blade and the armor is too big. The enchantment is completely confusing.

When eight-year-old Sarai gets lost in the royal forest, William, with the help of Sarai’s brother, sets out to rescue her and slay the Dragon. Unaware that the two have made friends and are fleeing a witch, the knight and his companion follow their unexpectedly challenging route.
