A w o r l d o f YA f a n t a s y - Global Blog Event Hop March 21st thru April 4th - 2014

A Little about me and why I think it important to take part in this blog hop:

First I must mention that I am not a writer, I am a reader. I was always an avid reader. (I am also a Biologist  that  love the science of life and look at it as kind of magic).

I also love poetry, Coffee and all the fields of ART (this is why I choose this title to my blog, which of course enable me to post whatever I like)
As  a small child I had a special fascination for myth and folklore . But my Love to Sci-fi started with Frank Herbert's "Dune"at age 13, when love to this kind of literature considered for geeks only. We where strange group of students, that the libertarians learned to know and save to us all the new additions. Of course all of us had a permission to take more books then the usual amount ( 2 books a day)

From the hard core classic Sci fi  it was easy to expand to fantasy & paranormal.

The reason for my taking part in this hop is really my love for magic ( I think that somewhere deep in all of us hide this will/wish for that world ....this and my acknowledge for the tremendous importance of inherit this love to the younger generation ( yes I have 2 children and i came from a family that know the importance of reading )

(The Dragonian Series #1)

Dragons. Right. Teenage girls don’t believe in fairy tales, and sixteen-year old Elena Watkins was no different.

Until the night a fairy tale killed her father.

Now Elena’s in a new world, and a new school. The cutest guy around may be an evil dragon, a Prince wants Elena’s heart, and a long dead sorcerer may be waking up to kill her. Oh. And the only way Elena’s going to graduate is on the back of a dragon of her own.

Teenage girls don’t believe in fairy tales. Now it’s time for Elena to believe  in herself
