Publisher Description

A kingdom hangs in the balance...and a young boy answers the call. Carrying a sealed message from the war-hero Dragon King to the queen, Quentin and his outlaw companion, Theido, plunge headlong into a fantastic odyssey and mystic quest.  Danger lurks everywhere in the brutal terrain, and particularly in the threats from merciless creatures, both human and not-so-human. While at the castle, the wicked Prince Jaspin schemes to secure the crown for himself, and an evil sorcerer concocts his own monstrous plan.  A plan that Quentin and Theido could never imagine. In the youth's valiant efforts to save the kingdom and fulfill his unique destiny, he will cross strange and wondrous lands; encounter brave knights, beautiful maidens, and a mysterious hermit; and battle a giant, deadly serpent. In this first book of the Dragon King Trilogy, Stephen R. Lawhead has deftly woven a timeless epic of war, adventure, fantasy, and political intrigue.

"This was my first taste of Lawhead. I really found his writing satisfying. I was aware of his Christian roots and found its impact weaved within the story in a way that was natural and beautiful. I think this series is well worth reading if you've not and rereading if you have."

    " I wanted to like this one, I really did. I thought the blurb was great. It made me want to read the book. However, once I was reading the story really just couldn't get my attention. I gave up almost half-way through, which is why I'm giving it such a low rating. "

    " I'm surprised this wasn't a young adult book really. It was simply written with a simple plot. All in all not an unpleasant read but I don't recommend it for the discerning fantasy fiction reader who favors a more complex story all around. "

    " This was my first Lawhead to read and I was in my late teens in the late 1980's when I read it. I recently started reading it aloud to my ten year old. I provide a brief review once we finish reading it. "

    " Decided to purchase and listen to this again for the sake of nostalgia. The Dragon King trilogy was one of the first fantasy series I read as a kid. Stephen R. Lawhead's later series are superior in every way. "

    " Reread this month. Good little young adults/kids storyling fantasy if you can ignore the obvious tweaks towards the "One God"/Judeo-Christian bent. Fast read. "

    " Its not that I disliked this book so much as I got to about page 120 and thought, "life is too short and there are too many other good books to read for me to waste my time reading something this lame." "

    " A refreshing story. I missed reading a wonderful fantasy story. I adored the main character because he was adorable and I just wanted to hug him at many points of the story. The villain was one I did want to hate and I did. I wanted him to see get what was coming to him. "
