What we like about "Ferno The Fire Dragon"
Visit Children Learn More
Ferno The Fire Dragon is the first book in Adam Blade's Beast Quest series. While you can read the books out of order and easily follow the story it is best to start out with the quest to free Ferno The Fire Dragon as this story introduces us to the main characters and we understand more about the hero Tom and those those who join him on his quest -- his horse Storm, his friend Elenna and her tame wolf Silver.
This story is filled with adventure and magic as Tom faces the evil wizard and struggles to free the enchanted guardian dragon as well as loyalty, friendship, and determination.

The dragon is a legendary creature of which some interpretation or depiction appears in almost every culture worldwide. The physical description and supposed abilities of the creature vary immensely according to the different cultures in which it appears. However, the unifying feature of almost all interpretations is it being a serpentine or otherwise reptilian monster (or at least possessing a serpentine/reptilian part or trait), and often possessing magical or spiritual qualities.
The two most familiar interpretations of dragons are either European dragons, derived from various European folk traditions, or unrelated Oriental dragons, derived from the Chinese dragon (lóng,?,?). The word "dragon" derives from Greek ?????? (drak?n), "a serpent of huge size, a python, a dragon" and that from ??????? (drakein) aorist infinitive active of the verb ???????? (derkomai) "I see clearly".Drakon, Henry George Liddell, Robert Scott, A Greek-English Lexicon, at Perseushttp://www.yawiktionary.com/d/1148365572775.html

What is a quest?
:This article is about the word, for other meanings see Quest (disambiguation)
A quest is a journey towards a goal used in mythology and literature as a plot. Quests can be found in the folklore of every nation.Josepha Sherman, Once upon a Galaxy p 142 ISBN 0-87483-387-6 In literature, the objects of quests require great exertion on the part of the hero, and the overcoming of many obstacles, typically including much travel.
This travel also allows the storyteller to showcase exotic locations and cultures, which may, indeed, be the writer's objective if not the character's.Michael O. Riley, Oz and Beyond: The Fantasy World of L. Frank Baum, p 178-9, ISBN 0-7006-0832-X
