Dragons in the Clouds by David Blair is a delightful middle-grade fantasy novella that sparks wonder and adventure for young readers. Told as a charming bedtime story a father shares with his daughter, the tale creatively reimagines the origins of thunder and lightning through the secret lives of dragons hidden in the clouds above the Kingdom of Albion. When a king orders the destruction of all dragons, the wise wizard Merlinius protects a family of gentle, plant-eating dragons with a magical spell of weightlessness. Their fiery breath becomes lightning and their roars become thunder as they soar safely among the clouds. A young boy named David and his loyal dragon friend Rago are drawn into an exciting clash involving friendship, courage, and the struggle between good and ambitious forces. The premise is inventive and heartwarming, blending Arthurian-inspired elements with themes of loyalty, seeing beyond appearances, and the magic that can hide in everyday storms. It’s a quick, engaging read ideal for ages 8–12 (and nostalgic adults who still love dragons), full of imagination that leaves readers looking up at the sky with a smile. Reviewers have praised its exciting pace, appealing characters, and ability to make fantasy feel accessible and fun. @Davidblr7777 - Amazon: amazon.com/Dragons-Clouds-Da… Bookshop.org (supports independent bookstores): bookshop.org/p/books/dragons… - Apple Books: books.apple.com/us/book/drag… Also available at Waterstones, Barnes & Noble, and other retailers (search the title + author for current editions and formats). About the author David Blair is the creator and writer of *Dragons in the Clouds*. Inspired by the atmospheric storytelling of Rod Serling (*The Twilight Zone*) and the heartfelt narratives of Charles Dickens (*A Christmas Carol*), he crafts tales with a touch of the paranormal and wonder. He began storytelling at age 14 with a student film called *Destination Destiny* and later worked as a production supervisor for EnterAktion Studios. This imaginative fantasy marks his debut in writing for young readers, bringing a cinematic flair and genuine enthusiasm for magical worlds to the page. #Authors #Artists #Creators

'You will smile and say you'd be delighted to accept his offer.' Her father's words. Not a question. Nicola de la Haye was an heiress in twelfth-century England. The king, the church, and her family all had opinions about who she should marry. She had exactly one opinion of her own - and zero legal right to act on it. She found a way anyway. #LadyOfLincoln #ArrangedMarriage #MedievalWomen #HistoricalFiction #FemaleAutonomy
