"12-year-old Connor Pendridge is moving... again. This time, his mom thinks their lives will be better in Lore, a sleepy island town off the coast of New England. Connor doesn't want to start over at yet another new school, especially in a place as boring as Lore. But as he quickly learns, Lore isn't as boring as it seems. That's because fantastic creatures appear that only he can see -- from fairies at school to goblins in his front yard. Connor thinks he's going crazy until a mysterious woman reveals his true destiny and hands him a dragon amulet containing the magic of Excalibur, the legendary sword of King Arthur. Now Connor must use the amulet to transform into a mighty dragon in order to stop an ancient, evil sorceress from conquering the world! Connor doesn't know the first thing about being a dragon. Luckily, he has the help of Merlin, his magical mentor, and his new friends, Gabby, who has a unicorn amulet, and Wade, who has a griffin amulet. Will Connor take flight as the legendary dragon of his destiny -- or will he flame out as the most unlegendary dragon of all time?" --
