Author and illustrator J.C. Stevens has introduced her illustrated Dragon Lad fantasy trilogy for readers ages 10 and up.
"Dragon Lad: The Thirteenth Egg," the first book in the Dragon Lad trilogy, debuted in 2015. "Dragon Lad: Tale of the Talisman," followed in 2017, and the third and final book, "Dragon Lad: Wand of the Black Sphere," was published in 2019.
Dragon Lad is a shapeshifting magic fantasy adventure filled with dragons, witches, wizards, fairies and fun, but there are deeper messages as well. Important themes include respecting nature, accepting those who are different - including one's own self - and transforming mind and soul as well as body into something better.
The trilogy starts off with Dorg, a dragon who hatches tiny due to a magic curse, tries to end the curse, and discovers something amazing about himself. In the second book in the series, the hero tries to unravel the secret of his past using only a single clue: the talisman his dragon mother wore when she laid the egg that contained his dragon self. In the third book, the hero and his human and dragon friends duel the shapeshifting sorceress who eluded them in the second book. He learns the value of truth and the importance of friends with the courage to fight for it.
