"Oh, to live in a world of dragons and magic! I can’t imagine many folks who haven’t, at some point in their lives, imagined themselves in a make-believe world with all sorts of wondrous creatures, castles, mysterious forests, and other miraculous places. But, unable to actually live in such a world, the next best thing is to read a fascinating book with all those things." By Bob Davis (San Antonio Express News)

“The Dragons of Candlewood,” is the first of a series of books that I am writing. This novel centers around the kingdom of Candlewood and the dragons the people of Candlewood raise to protect their kingdom and themselves. The dragons each have distinct personalities just like the five royal children who inhabit Candlewood.

The idea for Candlewood came years ago when I was playing with my then 3-year-old nephew, whom the book is dedicated to. With his help, I began writing the book but set it aside to focus more on my family.

I found the old manuscript and decided to finish it. The 172-page book is aimed at young adults and features characters such as Master Magellen, a teacher, Alamando, a Master Dragon handler and Magellen’s brother, and Prince Kevin, the oldest of the royal children who along with his dragon, Fire, learns lessons about loyalty, life and deception.

It’s called a book for ‘young adults, but is a hit with children in second and third grades, teenagers and adults.

Magic and dragons are real in Candlewood, and you can live there, when you read "The Dragons of Candlewood."
