HBAF 2020 - Night of the Dragons

James Russell and Gareth Ward.

Paddy and Flynn live on an island with no cell phones and no internet. They have grand explorations and soon discover that the dragons they thought to be extinct are alive and well. It becomes their mission to protect them from the dastardly Pitbull who would exploit the dragons for commercial gain.

A fantasy world built on an island; waterfalls, volcanoes, native bush and children in charge of a narrative full of danger and adventure – no wonder James Russell’s 'The Dragon Defenders' series has hooked many a young reader with its wily claws. Gareth Ward novels, 'The Traitor and the Thief', and 'The Clockill and the Thief' are multi award winning, rip-roaring young adult Steampunk adventures.

Join James and Gareth in an evening of interactive world building designed for young minds to venture forth and soar with the dragons.

In conjunction with the Hawkes Bay Readers and Writers Festival.
