about me

I enjoyed reading to my children and now they are grown up, they have given me some grandchildren to read to. I have written a book that I hope they will enjoy when they are a little older.

"The DragonKeeper" is a book in three parts. The main story is set in 1953, in the small Huntingdonshire village where my family have lived for several generations.

It is quite an unusual book. In addition to The Story of The DragonKeeper, the book includes a trio of essays about Dragons (about 5000 words in all, written by a Novice Witch), and The Pocket Guide to Witchery (a mini reference book of about 6000 words).

If my son can find the time, I also hope to have it illustrated with some small line drawings and a couple of maps.

The lovely cover is by the remarkable Bradley Wind.

THE DRAGONKEEPER

M E WALLIS

Dragons are invisible…until they start eating people.



Summer 1953...the children arrive in the village to spend the holidays with their grandparents. The DragonKeeper arrives on the same day.

The DragonKeeper's Magic powers are awesome, and she's devised an evil plot to destroy the village. But at first, her shenanigans are little more than practical jokes, and it's the children who get into trouble.

Then Ellie finds a strange egg, which hatches into an even stranger chick, which turns out to be a very hungry Dragon hatchling. First it eats the chickens, then cats and dogs, and as it gets bigger it devours whole sheep and even cows. Then it eats the postman. But, nobody believes the children...Because Dragons are invisible to adults.

The children search for the Dragonslayer's sword...The Dragon feasts on the villagers...Crowds of Bad Witches gather in anticipation to watch the spectacle of the village burning...Two DragonKeepers fight an epic duel...Good Witches battle against the forces of evil...and the children come face to face with the Fire Dragon...but can they save the village?

This book is in 3 parts and includes a trio of amusing essays about Dragons and DragonKeeping, written by a Novice Witch, and an exclusive edition of The Pocket Guide to Witchery.

This is quite brilliant. Your words weave a rich tapestry, dripping with atmosphere. The scene where you introduce the creature is chilling. M E Wallis view book

You have created a truly magical world and some amazing characters. Personally I like the present tense (my husband also writes this way) as it puts you right inside the MCs head. You comments on my little effort The DragonKeeper would be very much appreciated. Best Wishes M E Wallis The Dragonk... view book

Hi Helena. This is an absolute hoot, and so original. It this doesn't get published, there's not much hope for any of us. M E Wallis The DragonKeeper view book

It's difficult to say anything that's not already been said. This is great thriller writing and I can't wait to buy a copy in Waterstones. M E Wallis view book
