Akayzia Adams And The Masterdragon's Secret

A book of magic and adventure. A school visit to London Zoo causes Kazy Adams to swap the rough streets of East London for a world of magic and danger. With a creature she frees from its cage, she and her grandmother flee a band of hooded Watchers and enter the Inner Lands. They find themselves in a world where caravans fly quietly across the skies; lightstones glow with the wave of a hand; and dragons make good but enormous pets. Humans rub shoulders with the bear-like Hrakku, while friendly goblins have taken over the northern parts of Old London and winged horses roam the ancient woodlands. She is enrolled in Old Winsome's Academy, where half the pupils are Hrakku. Together they study Magic - the Magic that powers the swooping airboards on the sports field and protects them from the power of the Shadowmaker and his cruel allies, the Werewitches. And in amongst the Ordeals of skill and magic, there is a mystery to solve: the disappearance of nine pupils during the Headship of the Masterdragon Tharg, at the time of the Goblin Wars...Wicke, Ed is the author of 'Akayzia Adams And The Masterdragon's Secret', published 2004 under ISBN 9780967765235 and ISBN 0967765234.
