Books I love

HI EVERONE!!! The Library Elf here! Here are two book series that I love to death!!!!!

1: The Dragonkeeper Chronicles by Donita K. Paul.
This is one of myfavorite books of all time! You will really like these books if you like dragons. (Yes, I mean you Dark Rayven)!




Here is the description for the first book:


Once a slave, Kale is given the unexpected opportunity to become a servant to Paladin. Yet this young girl has much to learn about the difference between slavery and service.
A small band of Paladin's servants rescue Kale from danger but turn her from her destination: The Hall, where she was to be trained. Feeling afraid and unprepared, Kale embarks on a perilous quest to find the meech dragon egg stolen by the foul wizard Risto. First, she and her comrades must find Wizard Fenworth. But their journey is threatened when a key member of the party is captured, leaving the remaining companions to find Fenworth, attempt an impossible rescue, and recover the egg whose true value they have not begun to suspect...
Weaving together memorable characters, daring adventure, and a core of eternal truth, Dragonspell is a finely crafted and welcome addition to the corpus of fantasy fiction.


Here are the other four books:











2: The door Within Trilogy by Wayne Thomas Batson.
This is such a good series I just can't get enough of them!



Book one:
Aidan Thomas is miserable. And it's much more than the strange nightmares he's been having. Just when life seemed to be coming together for Aidan, his parents suddenly move the family across the country to take care of his wheelchair-bound grandfather. When strange events begin to occur, Aidan is drawn into his grandfather's basement where he discovers three ancient scrolls and an invitation to another world.
No longer confined to the realm of his own imagination, Aidan embarks on an adventure where he joins them in the struggle between good and evil. With the fate of two worlds hanging in the balance, Aidan faces Paragory, the eternal enemy. Will Aidan be willing to risk everything and trust the unseen hand of the one true King? The answer comes from The Door Within.

And the other two books:





Hope you enjoy them!!!

The Squire, His Knight, & His Lady

Hello my little gnats!! Or is it maggots...? Whichever squirmy creature it is, greetings all the same!!! This is a wonderful book written by Gerald Morris. It is only one of a series, but the lovely thing about his books is that each one is its own story and not just a follow-up of another. This book is set in the times of King Arthur and the main character is a young man named Terence who is a squire to the knight, Sir Gawain. One day at a feast in the castle, a green giant rides in with a challenge for the knights of the Round Table. Gawain takes up the challenge and sets off on the quest with his squire in tow. Along the way, they pick up the spunky Lady Eileen, and her and Terence soon fall in love. They travel to the Otherworld, where they find out who Terence really is, and encounter many challenges and strange creatures along the way. It is well written, and has an enjoyable mixture of light humor and dark wit. Look this book up at the nearest library, and be sure to check out his other books as well, especially the book, The Savage Damsel. That is the first book that I read of this series and it is still my favorite. Now I am off to my dazzling dreams and fantastic worlds!!! Farewell my slimy newts!!
