A high-spirited, eventful story
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
John Conlee's The Dragon Stone: A Tale Of Arthur, Merlin, & Cabal is a dramatic reinterpretation of the legend of King Arthur, beginning in Arthur's childhood days when an unseen assailant secretly plotted to harm the future king. The mystical wizard Merlin takes an interest in matters of court, succession, and nobility in this high-spirited, eventful story which is narrated from the perspective of King Arthur's dog Cabal. Deftly written and with meticulous attention to historical detail (King Arthur's dog Cabal is referenced in some of the earliest surviving examples of Arthurian literature), The Dragon Stone will appeal to fantasy buffs, Arthurian story cycle enthusiasts, and is especially recommended for young readers ages 10 to 14.
A great way to kids hooked on reading,

And a fun light read for adults. The quick pace and exciting plot line make this book perfect for after school or after work. Cabal's narration gives a unique twist on traditional children's tales and breathes new life into the Authurian genre. I look forward enjoying "The Dragon Stone" again with my own children some day. Can't wait for a sequel.
Great adventure!

This book swept me back to my childhood with its rich and imaginative adventures based on the legends of King Arthur. My fiance gave the book to me as a gift before I was traveling, and I finished the book before my airplane even touched down because it moves super fast and is incredibly absorbing. The originality of this tale is also great, as it is all told from the perspective of Arthur's pet dog, during the time in Arthur's life when he is still a boy/young teenager. I really enjoyed this book and think that it's a great read for both adults and children.
