A joy to read for fantasy lovers of all ages, and for dragon enthusiasts in particular
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
The Dragon's Familiar is a fantasy novel for young adults, about a twelve-year-old boy adrift in Brooklyn's childcare system, drawn through a demonic mirror into the fantasy world of Abydonne. Young Cory Avalon is discovered to be a magical prodigy - at an inexplicably rapid pace, he learns how to raise shields, attack with lightning, turn invisible, and even summons a youthful golden dragon to be his familiar. His prodigious talent is so great, whispers circle that he might be the one to defeat the malevolent Asmodeus, who threatens the world from his ominous stronghold of Abyollydd! Inspired by the wondrous tapestry of Welsh and Finnish mythology, The Dragon's Familiar is a joy to read for fantasy lovers of all ages, and for dragon enthusiasts in particular. Highly recommended.

Author's Synopsis
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
I wrote this novel in college in 1988. It is the story of a young boy from Earth who is pulled through a worldgate to the magic world of Abydonne, where his father came from. Cory Avalon is quickly apprenticed to the ancient wizard Math, and summons a baby golden dragon for his familiar. Math quickly realizes that Cory is the boy of the prophecy, the promised Archwizard who will defeat the Demon Lord Asmodeus and free the Twelve Kingdoms of Man from an evil tyranny.
