From the author's website:
"A prequel to the events of Icefire and beyond, in this book we meet our hero, David Rain as a student desperate to find lodging. He is relieved to find a place at Wayward Crescent, living with the seemingly normal Mrs Pennykettle, who makes clay dragons for a living, and her small daughter Lucy. But one day, David finds himself involved in Lucy’s quest to save the life of a dying squirrel. This finds him on a journey of discovery, where he learns not only about himself, but the secret of Mrs Pennykettle’s clay dragons!"
