Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An isolated cottage on the rugged coastline of North Devon is the home of Joe, a 12-year-old boy, his mum, and his two younger sisters. The property was owned by his late grandfather, and its isolation is wearing on Joe. Bored, with nothing to do but watch his sisters play with their dolls, Joe longs for excitement. The boy finds an old wooden box with a roll of parchment inside, showing a map of the coastline and some old writing. A new world then opens up for him, as he sees dragons flying overhead and a sea monster that comes to his rescue. Joe’s sisters believe in this new fantasy world filled with fairies, unicorns, and a little green man seeking their help in finding some lost stones. A trip to the British Museum locates the stones, which are then reunited with a dragon. Following a fierce battle, Joe’s adventure takes him through a time portal and a reunion with his deceased grandfather. Life is no longer boring for Joe.
