Sunil, a magical world full of, elves, mythical beasts and many other mysterious powers is where Ainsly and Megan find themselves trapped. They were brought here by Bornias Niksrevlis an old neighbor of theirs on earth, but who turns out to be the ruler of the kingdom of Arylon, in Sunil. While there, the Staff of Lexiam, the powerful artifact that was used by Bornias, was stolen. Fortunately the staff was recovered, but the magically empowered gems were not. Ainsly, while searching for the staff, contracted the Illness. The Illness, which was originated from the dragon Arastold, is a curse upon those who abuse magic& and have come into contact with dragon blood. It slowly turns a human into a dragon while destroying its host's soul. Then the dragons fly off to serve their master, Arastold. His companion, Megan, has found a cure for this horrible fate, but can she administer it in time to save her friend?

Opinion: 

I think this was one of the best fantasy books I have read in a long time. The author made this book extremely suspenseful by throwing in many twists and turns in an ongoing roller coaster. I was, however, disappointed that I couldn't find the first book in any local library or bookstore. I was so disappointed because I have not read the first one. I do think that it was a very good book and will be enjoyed by fantasy readers everywhere.
