Charles, A Dragon: Beginnings

About the Book

A young dragon met a young king in “Charles, A Dragon,” and gained the help of 13-year-old Charis in book two, “The King Arrives.” This story tells of Charis’ father, years earlier, first dealing with an evil that returns and threatens them all in book three, “Diamonds and Dragons.”

About the Author

Gary Henderson
Gary Henderson

I spend my days writing about technology, but every now and then I get to pick a banjo, hit a racquetball, produce some video, and even write a story or two!  From where? As they say, I wasn't born in Texas, but I got here as quick as I could!

I hope you'll enjoy my stories!

The "Charles, A Dragon" series and the "Oak and the Cliff" stories have lots of humor and talking animals mixed in. People of all ages enjoy them, and there are more sequels in the works.

The first book in the "Cords of Orion" series would be called Christian speculative fiction, a genre expanded most notably by C.S. Lewis, and by many others more recently. Also from a Christian viewpoint, "To Reign For A Thousand Years" offers a fictional exploration of what comes next, framed around some events described in the book of Revelation.

A new set of characters have arrived, Mac & Jennie -- taking on the bad guys with a light touch and plenty of humor, in what you might call light-hearted thrillers.

A new series introduces Lia and her father Harlan, seeking -- and by the end, finding -- a surprising new home.

And the "Short Stories" are a delightful sampling of things that have not made it into print, but are available as a collection in the ebook formats and are free to be read online. Click on the book cover below and look for the "Free to Read Online" button. The table of contents will be on your left. I would particularly suggest "The Flavor Shop," in which four cats (photo included) borrowed my Explorer and went to town for some ice cream...

Click on each book cover image to read more about it, and read samples. For the books that are continued stories, you can buy the set together, and you have all the ebook formats for all of them. See the "bundles" shown for those books. For beautiful print copies of these books, visit "https://amazon.com/author/garyhenderson".

Pick one, enjoy the story, and come back for more!
