Official synopsis Publisher
Son of the Dragon
Thirteen-year-old Artos is not as good as swordsplay, romance, or any other knightly accomplishment as his foster brothers Cai, Bedvere, and Lancot. An orphan raised by the kindly Sir Ector, he doesn’t even know the identity for his parents. But one day, Artos stumbles into the cave of an old and lonely dragon who offers to teach him the game of wisdom. Artos accepts, and becomes the Pendragon–the son of the dragon, the dragon’s boy. And with the dragon’s guidance, Artos sets out on a journey to a remarkable destiny–one that he never dreamed could be his own.
