Those hot-headed dragons on the island tumbled and rumbled and ROARED. But not little Norman. He liked making, not breaking. Can he make the others change? A tale of courage and conviction. Make Not Break, that’s the motto of a small blue dragon called Norman. But Norman lives on Dragon Island where all the other dragons want to break things. They like to bash and bruise and break and burn. What can one small dragon do to make his island a more peaceful place to live, a place where making is better than breaking? It takes courage to follow your own path. It takes courage to be true to yourself when everyone around you behaves differently, behaves badly, behaves violently. Dragon Island is a simple picture book that speaks directly to young readers about saying no to violence. All the dragons on Dragon Island are fierce, fiery and ferocious. Except for Norman. And Norman tries desperately to change the others, finally realising that sometimes, others won’t change their ways, and the only thing to do is walk away. Children are surrounded by violence. It comes through the TV screen, through the car window and sadly for some, it comes into the playground and through the front door of their home. How do they understand this in their terms, how do they develop tools for recognising it, for speaking out, and for walking away? Dragon Island is a simple story that builds a landscape for those tools. At one level it is a child centred picture book about courage. At another it is a flag the young reader can wave if they too live on Dragon Island. This book has been written on two levels – one as an entertaining story for children, but on a deeper level the author sees it as a tool to use in situations of domestic violence, with the message that we can try to change the behaviour around us, but if we can’t then the best thing to do is to walk away.

Three dark empires ally as three dark gods merge into one unholy trinity. Concepts concerning life cycles, evolving, revolving into passing seasons, yin and yang, are all immersed into a ballistic journey laden with symbolism. The Christian Crusades were a skirmish in comparison as some deep journeys are inevitably drenched in blood. Dark dragons seize the moment to defy their god given tasks to protect the lower races from genocidal tendencies. Evil dragons were to protect the darker races of ogre, troll, goblin and such, while good dragons protect elf, dwarf, and human. Dragons no longer wish to play their protective roles. Instead, evil dragons intend to captivate and cultivate elves, humans and dwarves like sheep, cattle or pigs. An island sets in the center of the World Sea that provides the perfect rest stop for flying dragons. Rampaging evil denizens dominate the isle, but both an elf and a human empire have naval outposts upon the fringes of the rocky coastline. Between the two military installations sets the finest trading city that elf and man has ever established together. Neither of the two empires intends to let this fair city fall without a bloody rumble.

A sixteen-year-old girl is on the run, banished from her family's noble fiefdom and resolute to save her father after the royal court exiled him to a faraway land of untamed magic. In this provocative and fast-paced fantasy adventure, Jade Sol must survive on her wits and determination while unraveling the secrets and lies of the royal court. She discovers that their machinations not only threaten her and her family, but the world itself.

'The SDS must change if we are to survive. We have to become one people again, as we once were, who live and train and fight together. You have both demonstrated your ability to do this, young though you both are. You come from different peoples; one noble born, the other the son of a scout. One desiring to fly dragons when tradition allows only men to do so; the other proving in the best tradition of his people that you do not need to wield a sword in your hand to protect those you love.'

Moonbeam Children's Book Award double silver medalist A gnome, a girl and a dwarf fly north on an injured battledragon in the depth of winter to search for the missing Commander of the Stealth Dragon Services.

On a planet called Frandis is a continent called Traztajor, which is divided into eight countries. Kangalor in the west is the largest of these countries. In the north, an area known as the upland is under the despotic rule of Zackard Lei, who is ruthless, brutal, and mad. Lei, the leader of the Das Blaazd Society of Thaumaturgery, has once before made war on the midland and downland areas of Kangalor, bringing much death and devastation until he was driven back behind his own borders by the brilliant and courageous leadership of Zaland Arj, the formidable leader of the Maj Society of Thaumaturgery. For five years, there was peace. Now Lei is plotting mayhem and turmoil for the unsuspecting population of Kangalor. He has developed a huge cannon and explosive devices to use against the Kangalor Army. He has ordered the building of a large fleet of ships whose only purpose is to land Leis soldiers, under blaazd leaders, all along the west coast of Kangalor and let his soldiers burn, slaughter, and plunder as they please. But there are dragons whose powerful black leader, the mighty Zagog, brings terrible revenge that will help to overturn Leis plans.
