The Last Firefox

Charlie Challinor is struggling with bullies at school and changes at home when he becomes guardian to a fox cub called Cadno. Cadno is a firefox, the only one of his kind, and a sinister hunter from another world is on his trail. To keep his flammable friend safe, Charlie must find courage he did not realise he had.

The First Shadowdragon

After defeating the evil Grendilock and saving Cadno, Charlie expects things to settle down. Instead, a familiar face from Fargone draws his family into another journey, as a new threat spreads across the land.

Travelling to Fargone with Lippy, Roo and a new magical friend, Blodyn, Charlie faces the dreaded Draig, a shadowy monster draining life from the realm. Along the way, he must uncover a lost secret that links Draig’s history to his own.
