The Treasure of Askelon: Dragonrook, Book 1 (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798999231901)

Askelon. The legendary lance used by St. George to slay the dragon. A mysterious weapon that wields a powerful secret and that has long since been lost in the shrouds of history.

But what does that have to do with young Arthur Cross and his new pair of smelly boots? Little does he and his brother know that they are about to find themselves on a bone-shaking adventure upon the high seas fraught with riddles, buried treasure, blood-thirsty pirates, lost islands...and an incredible new world beyond the edges of the map!

Arthur and his brother Clay join forces with the mysterious Captain Archie Royal (and a taciturn mapmaker) to uncover the legendary Askelon. Their goal: nab it before it falls into the greedy clutches of the nefarious and cruel Thaddeus Schark. But what begins as a quest for an ancient artifact becomes a perilous tug-of-war between warring dragons...and a centuries-old, bitter conflict between the honorable creatures of Dragonrook and the dangerous, unruly beasts of Fangshard.

First in the brand new Dragonrook series, "The Treasure of Askelon" is a pulse-pounding experience, rich with swashbuckling heroics, last-minute escapes, colorful characters, wit, and a heart of 24 karat gold. Dive into this page-turning adventure from Daren Hatfield, the award-winning author of the time-twisting tale "Nothing Ever Happens on Main Street."
