Join us at Curious Iguana at 6:00 pm on Tuesday, April 1 for a meet-and-greet with author James Riley as he promotes his new book, The Dragon’s Apprentice. After spending the day visiting schools, James will be at the Iguana in the evening to meet fans and sign books!This event is free and open to the public. Books will be available for purchase and signing at the event.
About the book: STOP. Don’t read any further. There are magic spells in this book, and the Emperor has forbidden anyone from learning magic, because it’s way too dangerous! If you try one of the spells, any number of terrible things might happen (or so the Emperor says).
Don’t be like Ciara, a twelve-year-old girl living in the tiny village of Skael. When she used a spell from within this book, she ended up summoning a dragon. A DRAGON! Those things breathe fire! From their mouths! She’s obviously doomed.
And don’t listen if Ciara tells you that dragons won’t hurt humans, and that they even once taught us magic, a thousand years ago. Definitely don’t pay any attention to the fact that the dragon she summoned, Scorch, might be willing to help rescue Ciara’s mother and free her village from the Emperor and his Warden, because it’s all obviously a big lie. So put this book down, and forget about it. Magic is just way too dangerous. After all, you wouldn’t want to summon your own dragon, would you?
About the author: James Riley is the New York Times bestselling author of the HALF UPON A TIME series, the STORY THIEVES series, the REVENGE OF MAGIC series, the ONCE UPON ANOTHER TIME series, and the new DRAGON’S APPRENTICE series. He was born in Connecticut, where he lived for only a short time before moving to … well, quite a few states. He currently lives in Boston, Massachusetts, because that’s where his cats are. He has three of them. Other people think that’s a bit much.
