The Dragon in the Meadow

When seventeen-year-old Gwendolyn follows a porcupine off a familiar park path and through a hidden doorway, she enters another world where a lonely dragon has been waiting for her. Dreki is the last guardian of a once-thriving meadow now falling silent after the theft of the Stone of Remembrance, a symbol of peace that kept the animals of the region living in harmony. If the stone is not found and restored, the meadow may be lost forever. Gwen chooses to stay and help. What begins as a search for a missing relic quickly grows into a far greater quest across wild country, through mountain passes, and into kingdoms shaken by fear, prophecy, and war. Along the way she must master new skills, learn whom to trust, and find the courage to face dangers far beyond anything she has known in her own world. The Dragon in the Meadow is a classic-style fantasy adventure filled with dragons, hidden worlds, loyal friendship, bravery, and the weight of choosing what is right when the cost is high. Keith Hall's novel blends wonder, danger, and heart in a story for readers who love heroic quests, meaningful friendships, and the discovery that ordinary people may be called to extraordinary things.
