A legendary dragon, a teenage girl and their adventures in Costa Rica

It happened to be during summer vacation when Alexandra encountered her dragon.

Now, most people do not believe in dragons. Alexandra had never given the subject any thought and had held no opinion, one way or another, about fire-breathing, winged reptiles. If she had been asked, however, she would probably have said no. After all, she had left behind the Tooth Fairy and Santa Claus beliefs some years before.

It is, however, impossible to remain a disbeliever when one of these scaly beasts of myth invites itself into your life. That was just what happened to her. One day, while Alexandra was minding her own business, a dragon just showed up.

She had been spending the holidays, with her parents, in a rented home near an active volcano named Arenal, in the country of Costa Rica. She did not yet know it, but her life was about to be profoundly transformed by being so close to the fire.

Come explore with Alex as she discovers the wonders and beauties of Costa Rica and as she, at the same time, also discovers the even more beautiful and wondrous inner landscapes of heart and mind.

Pythos, the dragon will delight you. He is witty, wise and wonderful.He is in living, mostly napping, in obscure retirement from his previous profession...the original, mythological Oracle at Delphi, when Alexandra serendipitously encounters him hiding in his cave beneath the fires of Arenal.

Together, Alex and Pythos share an unfolding adventure. She transforms him as much as he-her, as they journey together on a quest for a new mythos.

You, too, will be transformed by this tale as old as human history and as new as cyberspace. Come feel the fire and share the unfolding adventure... Alexandra's DragonFire
