The Dragil: Broken Magic (Quick Reads Book 2) Kindle Edition

by Holly Barbo (Author), Ian Styer (Illustrator) Format: Kindle Edition
5.0 out of 5 stars 3 ratings
The Dragil: Broken Magic is a fantasy adventure for the young or young-at-heart. Originally the story was published in the Tendrils collection of short stories, but is available as a stand-alone through Quick Reads. The incredible image of the dragil on the cover is original art by the talented Ian Styer. ©2016

When Willum, an apprentice book maker, has a nasty fall, he loses all of his memories…including the strictures concerning protective magic for the exquisite miniature dragons called Dragilios. Not knowing he is breaking the magic law, and sending the little Dragil, Malle, into deadly peril, he draws the friendly, little dragil.
The moment the picture is finished the protective spell shatters. Her anguished cry as she disappears restores his memory.
Devastated at what he has done and wanting to right the wrong or die trying, Willum undertakes a dangerous quest into the malignant world of the giant leather-winged dragons. Can he find her in time before she is ripped apart and eaten? If he stays too long in that lethal land, he becomes stone.
The hourglass sands are slipping away toward the doom of the boy and the fragile little dragil. Can he save them both?

A Quick Read book is a short story available as a single small book. In both ebook and paper format, it is a perfect small gift or for escaping to another place and reality when you only have a tiny block of spare time.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Holly’s world is shaped by her love of family (which includes an adorable rescue kitty who has stolen her heart), the beauty of nature and an irrepressible curiosity that frequently has her turning over rocks and questioning what she finds. This sometimes sends the reader down a rabbit hole into an alternate view of the world than what they expected. Holly’s mind can be an interesting place.

In all her work, Holly weaves alternative worlds with threads from today.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Heart gripping tale - Holly does it again!

    I was given this book for an honest review. I was so wrapped up in the story of Willum and the little dragil that I finished the book at 2:00 am when I should have been asleep as it was a work night. The anxiety that Willum felt when he needed to save the little dragil was amazingly felt by me, the reader. I was as anxious as he was. It was a wonderful heart-wrenching story told by an author well-known for her "reach out and grab you" tales. A very good read!!

    This was another brilliant short story by Holly Barbo! This one was a genre I'm new to, fantasy adventure, and I'm so glad I had this amazing adventure to go on as my beginner entrance to the genre. Willum and his perilous yet seemingly quick journey to right the wrongs he did was so much fun! Lord of the Rings meets The Dark Crystal in my opinion!

    Reviewed in the United States on October 7, 2016
    I was given this book as a gift. The author knows how to get us into the action. I know that when a book transports me to the scene of the action, I want to read more. This was a fun, creative short story. When the book was finished, I wanted more. Excellent read
