From the Back Cover
'What tale would you like to hear tonight?'
'The Dragon Whisperer!' they chorused, huddling together as the wind whistled sharply outside and the moons rode the shredded clouds like galleons.
About the Author
Quenelda's passion for dragons is based on Lucinda's own devotion to all creatures great and small. She and her family share their Edinburgh home with an ever changing number of rescue animals, ranging from cats, dogs, rabbits and guineapigs, to escaped battery hens on the run. She specialises in cruelty cases and animals with behavioural problems, and friends often comment that she can weave magic and talk to the animals - a real life 'whisperer'!
The Dragon Whisperer is Lucinda's debut novel.
