Description

The Candlestone is Volume 2 of the 4-volume Dragons in Our Midst Series. The other volumes in this series are available separately: Raising Dragons Volume 1, Circles of Seven Volume 3, and Tears of a Dragon Volume 4. Or purchase all four volumes together and save.

The Candlestone is a contemporary fantasy novel, the second of a series of books for pre-teens and young adults. Along with a unique blend of fantasy and real life, it delivers action and inspiration through the adventures of two young teens, Billy Bannister and Bonnie Silver.

Billy and Bonnie wonder about a number of unsolved mysteries. What was the strange book that the dragon slayers used to summon a dragon? Where is the magnificent sword that seemed to disintegrate the evil Devin? And what happened to The Candlestone, that strange gem, always absorbing light and with it the powers of dragons or dragon children within its sphere of influence?

The Candlestone not only absorbs light, it captures and holds encoded light, including transluminated humans, people who have been transformed into light energy by Excalibur, King Arthur's great sword. When Bonnie enters the stone herself, she learns that many disembodied souls have fallen prey to the gems powers, but no one has ever escaped.

The two teens face their greatest fears, and they learn to use their strengths, both innate and newly found, as they battle powerful enemies, ancient fiends from times long past, and the horrors of the blackest of prisons, captivity with the walls of unearthly darkness, the crystalline tomb of The Candlestone.


What others are Saying

"Not since C.S. Lewis has Christian literature produced an author who could weave ancient legends, ancient truths, and modern characters into such a compelling story."—Sharon Siepel review appearing on CBN.com

"Bryan Davis provides the perfect mix of fantasy and familiarity. In the midst of captured dragons and swordplay, Davis inserts touches of technology that will draw in even the most cutting edge teen. His heroes display the unusual strength of character that parents want their young readers to emulate but the characters aren't so heaven bound as to alienate normal teens."—Louise Bergmann DuMont, Author & Speaker

"This fascinating tale is as thrilling as its prequel. The characters are well developed and the plot is captivating. I couldn't put it down for a moment! Bryan Davis is a masterful novelist—I can't wait to see what comes next!"—Jessica McDonald (14 years old), daughter of James and Stacy McDonald, Homeschooling Today® magazine
