ⓘ About Chris d’Lacey
David is determined to uncover the truth behind the mysterious clay dragons. He embarks on a quest to discover the secrets behind the icy regions of the Arctic and their connection to the fire of the last dragon on earth. This is one journey that will transform David’s life as he has known it, bringing him into the heart of dragon legends and ancient mysteries about the secret of the icefire. While Chris d’Lacey is clearly writing for children, his books have a way of engaging adult readers, and this is especially true for IceFire, the second novel in the ‘Last Dragon Chronicles’. The characters (even Aunt Gwyneth) are all surprising interesting, though they lose out to the considerably more lovable clay dragons. Rising to prominence with the Publication Order of The Last Dragon Chronicles Books series, Chris d’Lacey has since expanded their repertoire to include numerous successful works across various genres. Their writing style, characterized by compelling narratives and memorable characters, has earned them a dedicated global readership with millions of fans worldwide.
