About the Books
This 3-book paperback collection brings together the complete story arc of Charlie Challinor and his firefox companion, Cadno. It begins with The Last Firefox, where Charlie discovers that Cadno is the only firefox left in existence and must protect him from a sinister hunter crossing over from another world. As the series continues in The First Shadowdragon, Charlie and his friends Lippy, Roo, and the magical Blodyn are pulled back into adventure, traveling to the realm of Fargone to confront Draig, a shadowy creature draining the land of life. The story builds further in The Lost Sunlion, expanding the mythology of Fargone and deepening the bonds between Charlie and his found family of friends, both human and magical. Author Lee Newbery weaves themes of courage, chosen family, and self-acceptance throughout, with Charlie's own family life - including his two dads - portrayed naturally and warmly. The books are written for confident young readers who enjoy fast-paced fantasy with real emotional depth, drawing comparisons to beloved middle-grade adventures featuring animal companions and portal fantasy worlds. Each installment stands as a satisfying chapter while contributing to the overarching quest to save Fargone, making this collection ideal for readers who want to experience the full story from beginning to end without gaps.
