Description

The Coldfire Curse is the first instalment of the exciting Dragon Kingdom of Wrenly graphic novel series, where the scarlet dragon Ruskin's bravery is put to the test as a curse threatens his kingdom.

As the pampered pet dragon of the Prince of Wrenly, Ruskin has never known life beyond the walls of the palace. Until one day, a young dragon from Crestwood arrives at the palace to plead for help. An evil curse has been unleashed in Crestwood and threatens to destroy all of Wrenly. Ruskin faces a choice: stay safe at home in the palace, or attempt to help save his kingdom. For Ruskin, there is no choice. He knows he has to try and help if possible.

What Ruskin and his new dragon friends don’t yet realise is that the curse was awoken for one reason only—to put Ruskin in harm’s way. The mission to reverse the curse is far more dangerous than anyone realises… in fact, it’s seemingly impossible. Why is Ruskin the target of these shadowy forces? And how far is Ruskin willing to go to save his kingdom?
