Books with title The Dragon's Tooth

Back in high school Scott, Paul, Chris and Luke made two pacts: to stay friends forever and to play Warriors and Thieves as often as possible. Twenty-four years later neither pact remains. Each man has gone his own way. Only Chris still plays the game, and he is dying of cancer. Will his friends reunite for one last game? The way they always dreamed of playing? As they come together, they realize Chris stumbled upon a way for them to enter their fantasy world of Canaanshade and play the game for real...as their characters of old. There's a catch: they must return to 1989 and the bodies of their middle and high school selves first. Otherwise, any damage they receive in the game will be upon them as well. What could it hurt? Little do they know, a dark secret from their past is haunting them, threatening not only their game but their very lives. As the four boys enter Canaanshade and the bodies of their favorite role-playing characters, a strange thing happens. Each begins to slowly slip into oblivion and fade into his player's consciousness. Will they realize it in time? And if so, can they do anything to stop the process? One of them has sold his friends out to the red and black dragon. Will the others discover the identity of dragon's pawn before it is too late? Getting into the game was the dream of a lifetime; getting out was the nightmare no one ever expected.

"A Dragon's Tooth" is a fairy tale told by the court jester, about a lovable dragon, an absent minded sorceress, a thoughtful princess, and a pure of heart hero who must deal with the king offering his daughters hand in marriage to the first to slay the Great Dragon Basilisk, and bring back a tooth as proof. It is a story full of obstacles that each character must address by using their brains instead of the sword. The art work as well as the story is bright, colorful, cute, and original.

One foggy spring morning, when he was ten years old, his obsession with the crevasse almost killed him. While trying to maneuver along a wet overhang with a flashlight, he slipped and landed on a large rock that was sealing off the rest of the crevasse from the prying eyes of the outside world.As he approached his destiny, a presence from within that had haunted him since he was a child, no longer felt friendly. Even though he hesitated for a moment, he knew that it was too late to turn back now.

What he couldn’t know, was if the price for this choice was worth risking the lives of those he loved, and to those who loved him. Either way, he knew that from this point on, his life was never going to be the same again.
