An old ten-man dragon in a Chinatown shop window turns Peter Chang's summer visit to Great Aunt, which he had been dreading, into an exciting adventure. The Last Dragon's silk is faded and torn, and its eyes are gone, but Peter finds people willing to help restore the dragon to life-Great Aunt's mahjongg friends, a tailor, a kite maker, a street artist-and learns his way around the neighborhood at the same time. The banquet that honors the dragon's return to its full glory and marks the end of Peter's visit is also a celebration of Chinatown's unique culture. Chris K. Soentpiet's exquisitely detailed watercolor paintings are filled with the energy and color of the busy streets and shops of Chinatown.

Seyda Yorkson is a is a daughter of a wealthy, noble line, brought up in society and trained to be a proper lady. Though she has been raised with expectations clearly laid out in front of her, she has always admired Lady Kaylyn Madara, the Heroine of Centralia who saved their country years ago. Now there are more Dragonriders and a new clutch of dragon eggs, and a call is sent out for the country's next generation of guardians. When Seyda defies her past and becomes a Dragonrider, there are plenty of hurdles to overcome. None of the Dragonriders think she has what it takes, but Seyda is determined to prove them wrong. In order to do that, she and her dragon must learn how to become a team and stand together in the face of political pressure, society's expectations, and secrets. While Seyda has her own secrets, a dark secret the older Dragonriders have been hiding is not as easily forgotten as they want. For a small country with larger enemies searching for a weakness, failure could mean this time Centralia won't win the war. If Seyda doesn't learn what it means to be a Dragonrider, it could spell disaster for them all, and the alliance between humans and dragons could be at an end.

In this fourth installment of the Three Thieves fantasy adventure series of graphic novels, Captain Drake's quest to find Dessa, Topper and Fisk has led him to a remote healing monastery where he believes they have gone to tend Dessa's broken leg. While pursuing his quarry, Captain Drake finds himself beset by memories of his early days as a young and idealistic knight in King Roderick's service. Featured as flashbacks, these memories provide readers with important clues to the unfolding story, such as that the King's Dragons were more loyal to the palace chamberlain, Maarten Greyfalcon, than to the king; that there was a mysterious letter written by the king, meant to be read only at his death, which had disappeared; and that Drake had uncovered a plot to murder the king. The tale moves forward in both the present and the past, with the flashbacks drawn in black-and-white to differentiate the time. As with the very successful and well-reviewed first three titles by award-winning cartoonist Scott Chantler, high action propels this fast-moving story forward, with sword fighting, chase scenes and a bold and daring narrow escape, while intricate plotlines full of intrigue and suspense (and occasional witty banter) keep the reader guessing. The art is dramatic and evocative, offering emotional close-ups, telling details and believable backdrops. This is a wonderful graphic novel that will engage reluctant readers, providing a painless way to dive into literature and learn about plot, character, setting and other literary devices.

With each step inside the Dungeon of Dreadful Dreams, he must battle against his own worst nightmares. One after the other, bull sharks and sea sirens come at him … he must remember they are only illusions pulled from his imagination by shadow-like hands.

In the tower made of glass, the great wizard sleeps in an eternal slumber, and Evan’s uncertain whether he can save him. Especially, now that Merlin's former student, the Lady of the Lake, has joined forces with the cunning immortal Alamaz. Together, they have already stolen the Dragon’s Egg, but their greed doesn’t end there. The Siren’s Pearl calls to them, and that means only one thing … Atlantis is in trouble.
