About this ebook
Florian is of those kids who’d rather read than play ball with his friends. Which is just as well because he doesn’t have any friends.
Florian is also a fairy prince. Yeah-right. That’s what he says, too, when a strange woman visits his father’s caravan and tells him that unless a spell is renewed by the king of Celestia within seven days, the world is doomed. His father is disabled so Florian finds himself with a crown on his head, setting off to Celestia in the company of his father’s cranky horse, which turns into a none-less-cranky unicorn, and his father’s three motorbike-riding friends, who insist they are elves.
Ruled under the tight fist of Florian’s mother, Celestia has become a place where males, human or otherwise, are not welcome, let alone allowed to come near the shrine to speak the words of the spell, just forgetting about that tiny detail that Florian doesn’t have any magic. He seeks help from Celestia’s only male inhabitant:
a hermit magician, who tells him that to find the solution, he must unshrink the dragons.
Excuse me? Dragons?
