🧙 💍 🐉 Dragon Lad: Wand of the Black Sphere by J.C. Stevens 🐉💍🧙
______________________________________________

Dirk is a budding boy wizard who hatched as a dragon and has a ring that turns him back into one. For his summer vacation, he's leaving Roman Britannia on a secret journey to tell the dragon who raised him she's free from a curse.

He doesn't realize he's being tracked by his worst enemy, the sorceress who abducted him as a baby and blames him for her husband's death. Treacherous Ethelda thinks Dirk has her fiendishly powerful wand and she'll do anything to get it back.

The Roman Army wants the Wand of the Black Sphere, too, worried Ethelda will use it against them, and they're looking for Dirk, the last one seen with it. But Dirk's halfway around the world dealing with monsters and magic they couldn't imagine.

I really loved this story and where it ended. It was such a magical ride and a great concept. I didn’t read any of the other books in the series (this being book III) and I had no problem following along. I think maybe the other two would’ve added more background and I would’ve understood Dirk better, but I didn’t mind reading this first.

Dirk is such a great character and the concept of this story was so magical. I had a really fun and enjoyable time with this story that I finished it in one sitting. It was so interesting and amazing. I really did like and enjoy this. Also, I was super intrigued and hooked from the beginning that I would definitely recommend this if you’re into and want a magical experience. Full with wizards, dragons, monsters, and so much more. Literally the magic never stops and I really enjoyed that. This is a middle grade novel, but I personally didn’t mind it. I really enjoy Harry Potter and this story gave me bits and pieces of it. It sometimes reminded me from it and that really means a lot. I would highly suggest this if you want a fast, enjoyable, and magical read.
