About the Book

Marion spins a fantastical narrative that seamlessly intertwines magic, reality, folklore, and witty dialogue for an uproarious tale in her imaginary latest middle grade read.... Un-put-downable." - BookView Review"Oh, cheer up," said Lucy. "It's simple really, we find the Emperor, help him stay alive until he's ready to take the throne, get the key for changing lead into gold, and then it's off to find your parents. What could go wrong?"Lucy wants an adventure.Dee needs money to help him find his missing parents.When a flaming bird leads them to a hidden road, and the lord of stone offers them a quest, the opportunity for both arises. In a land full of magic, dragons, and demons, all they have to do is befriend a young emperor―which would be a lot easier if he wasn't a royal pain and an angry queen didn't want to destroy him.Soon they're running for their lives with the entitled ruler in tow. Lucy and Dee must find a way home with a mysterious feather and a dragon-whisperer (who looks suspiciously like a hedgehog) their only defense against capture...or worse.Early reviewers are raving about Lucy & Dee - The Silk Road"An enthralling, fast-paced adventure, hinting of more to come." - Kirkus Reviews" A rip-roaring fantasy...
