Dragons, myth, and magic unite in the third installment of Cornelia Funke's bestselling Dragon Rider series. Ben and the Greenblooms must protect a mythical new creature rising from the ocean -- a creature who can bring either light or darkness to whoever it first meets.
A new peril has emerged in the world of Fabulous Creatures. One that could cause the disappearance of their kind. Luckily, all of our favorite characters are back -- Ben and Firedrake, his wonderful dragon friend, plucky Guinevere and the Greenbloom family, Sorrel the irrepressible brownie, the miniature man Twigleg and a host of new Fabulous Animals and sturdy helpers. But the threat is real and qucikly encroaching. A villian from the family's past is seeking revenge.
And all the while, the mysterious Aurelia, the most fabulous and powerful creature of all, moves across oceans to its final destination, introducing a new underwater world to enjoy.
From the waters of New Zealand to the edge of the sky in the Himalayas, from the coast of California
to the deep sea of the Pacific - voice actor Marc Thompson once again takes us on an exciting journey in the latest Dragon Rider adventure. Along the way, he lends his voice to a whole array of mythical creatures: from familiar friends like the silver dragon Lung, the homunculus Twigleg, and the Scottish brownie Sorrel to new beings such as merfolk, leprechauns, and a copper man.
Accompanied by a soundtrack of ethereal underwater sounds, fast-paced orchestral battle music, and dramatic choral arrangements. A special role is played by the unique art instrument known as the
Daxophone, which powerfully captures the magical song of the Aurelia.
