I didn’t always love reading dragon quest books. My favorite book growing up (and to this day) is A Wrinkle in Time, but I didn’t have a love for reading at all. When I reached the seventh grade we had to read books. She didn’t care what books we read, they could be dark fantasy novels, they could be horror, they could even be about towns burning in dragon fire. She didn’t care. My passion for reading is what made me offer my free dragon shifter books to share that love. ˃˃˃ Who should read this book? Anyone who likes free dragon shifter books. I know a lot of adults read young adult, and that’s awesome. There’s nothing too graphic in my book, and while there’s a tiny bit of swearing, I’ve read much worse. The real audience I was going for are those women out there who dragon quest books and those looking for awesome heroes, monsters, and lots of dragon fire. I find I have a lot in common with women my age, and my characters are typically of the female variety and just starting out in life, so that works. Honestly, these books could work for anyone. ˃˃˃ Are there any authors who've shaped your writing? Oh yea, those high fantasy series I mentioned? They were David Eddings, Mercedes Lackey, and an awesome dragon quest series called Dragonlance. I got lost in those pages, reading of wizards, and dragon fire as well as all the magic and monsters! Mercedes Lackey really helped me through my teen years, struggling to accept myself as a young gay man. If it wasn’t for her works, things might have been very different for me. I found her just when I needed to. I also had a friend who loved fantasy so, kind of as homage to my past, here's free dragon shifter books! ˃˃˃ BOOK CATEGORIES Dragon fireDragon free booksDragon questfree dragon booksfree dragon fantasy booksfree dragon books for teensfree dragon shifter books Scroll up and grab your free copy today.
