The Dragon and the Stone

Ever since Lily's dad died, her life has been full of sadness. When Cedric the Dragon appears looking for a missing steward, it turns out that Lily is the one. Before Lily can learn more, she is attacked by a shroud who wants to steal the stone. Lily and Cedric flee and are transported to a new realm. Cedric tells her to go to the Castle Iridyll, where the Council can help her go home. As she travels to the Castle and faces dangerous trials, a boy called Adam nearly dies. Lily cries for help, and a unicorn called Pax rescues Adam and heals his wounds. Pax also tells Lily that her dad is proud of her, indicating that he is alive. As they continue the journey, Lily encounters more shrouds who use deception and brute force to try and take the stone from Lily for their master, Eymah. After another battle with evil creatures, most of their travelling party are hurt and unable to travel. Lily creates a ship from the clouds that takes them to the castle. This reveals that she is a special steward who can craft things using her imagination. At the castle, she learns that her father is at the Cave of Lights, so she sets out to go there, but even more obstacles stand in her way. Will Lily ever find her father and be able to return home? An engaging tale of good versus evil with strong Christian themes. This is the first book in the Dream Keeper Saga.
