Finnian Thysor's younger brother Archibald is a magician. It can often come in quite handy having someone he can turn to for free spells and charms who still owes him for years of brotherly annoyance.
However it can just as often cause problems that Finn would rather not have to deal with. Such as when a miscast spell causes Archie to disappear without a trace. And then it isn't long before the magical pleas for help start arriving.
So, armed with the name of a beach on the mysterious Arys Isle, Finn sets out to find him. But Arys Isle is a strange place and the people are even stranger. Not to mention the ever present rumour that dragons have been spotted on the Isle once more.

Perry Arval isn't what anyone would call unskilled. After all, he's a magician. He can manipulate arts most could never dream of, like going from his home in Ireland to the other side of the world in seconds. But it's never been enough. The only thing he's interested in is summoning, but, thanks to his halfling spirit, he can't do it without risking possession. Not that the strict law that keeps people like him away from sorcery stopped him from pursuing it anyway. With a fire demon fused to his soul and a red flag sticking out of his uniquely strong spirit, things take a turn for the worse-namely when a dark and powerful demon slips into his life. Now that this angry spirit has a hold on him and a target painted on the society of magicians he calls home, everyone he knows is in danger. When his father goes missing, Perry must seek the aid of someone he never even knew existed: his twin sister. Together for the first time in sixteen years, Perry and his sister Bronte are thrown into an adventure that spans from New York City to the brink of the demon realm in order to save their parents and put an end to a thousand-year-old vendetta.Complete
The Golden Dragon's Hoard
Astraeus, a baby dragon, escapes from his old coven and stumbles upon a little shop that he spends months stealing from and hiding in to survive. The witch and familiars who live there are... strange. They know he takes from them but don't put up different wards, don't do things that could hurt him. They know that he has a hide out in the aster tree, that he lives close-instead of getting rid of him and forcing him to move, they visit him. Talk to him, leave him things, they're kind. Different. Stranger than any other witch or familiar he's ever met. Stray is not used to things that don't hurt. The gentleness is terrifying. He'd rather stay away from them than learn why they don't have sharp tongues or bruised knuckles. However, on the night of a bad storm, he gets trapped inside of the shop, trapped with kind strangers. After getting caught, he discovers another dragon. He learns that life is not meant to be painful. He learns that he can be loved. He's allowed to want things with them. To eat, to not fear the cold, to live instead of survive. Everything changes and Stray is determined to make them his hoard, to make it complete.Complete
