Wizard in the Woods by Jeffrey M. Poole Book Summary

The villages of Lentari are in big trouble. Dragons have swooped in, inexplicably blasting homes and businesses with fire, nearly burning the town of Verdayn to the ground. No one knows what is behind the attacks—the dragons and humans have been allies for a long time. Suspicions point to an outside force. Something or someone has bewitched the dragons into committing the heinous acts. King Kri’Entu doesn’t quite know where to turn for answers. Until his son volunteers to lead the investigation.

Crown Prince Mikal is now a young man, bored with court life and wanting to take an active part in his father’s work. He convinces the king to allow him to travel to Verdayn to find out what happened. His first stop is to speak with the town constable, and Mikal finds himself suddenly enchanted with the constable’s pretty daughter, Lissa. Forcing himself to keep his mind on business, he takes the villagers’ statements and is quickly off to the site of yet another dragon attack. All of this seems to be leading in one direction. There’s a rogue wizard on the loose, and Mikal is stunned to learn the talented conjurer is close to his own age. How did one so young learn the skills to create more complex spells than the elder wizards, and to control creatures as mighty as dragons? And why is he doing this?

The quest to find the wizard and to stop the attacks takes Mikal and Lissa, with help from the young dragon, Pravara, into dangerous waters indeed.
